=head2 v5.25.1 - Eli Pariser, "The Filter Bubble"

Announced on 2016-05-20 by Sawyer X

Imagine that you're a smart high school student on the low end of the social
totem pole. You're alienated from adult authority, but unlike many teenagers,
you're also alienated from the power structures of your peers -- an existence
that can feel lonely and peripheral. Systems and equations are intuitive, but
people aren't -- social signals are confusing and messy, difficult to interpret.

Then you discover code. You may be powerless at the lunch table, but code
gives you power over an infinitely malleable world and opens the door to a
symbolic system that's perfectly clear and ordered. The jostling for position
and status fades away. The nagging parental voices disappear. There's just a
clean, white page for you to fill, an opportunity to build a better place, a
home, from the ground up.

No wonder you're a geek.

=head2 v5.25.0 - Robert Frost, "The Trial by Existence"
