Damn it, now I have ro read another Stephenson book.


Snow Crash is the Hackers (1995 film) of Stephenson's body of work. It's so aggressively 90s and cyber techno that it seems somewhat adorably cheesy in retrospect, but there's an audience of Z-ers who are just now discovering it, and what it means to be excited about technology the way we were back then.


Google needs to retarget on being the Central Intelligence Corporation they were always meant to be.
