I sit at a desk and on the floor is a set of embarrassing books: they are photoshop oriented. And they are foolish, popular, and embarrassing.

They wrap words around experience, limiting it, turning all optic patters into the ditch of commerce. As such, they are a waste of time, and life.

I speak as someone who wrote their first photoshop plugin back in the day — the day of adobe’s first api efforts. when adobe was young, I was already very proficient at the language of too many semicolons.

This is only offered as a caution to using an engineered vision, which is what photoshop provides.

I know you won’t heed this.

I know you will also eat too much salt and sugar.

I know that at some future date, you will regret those choices.

I know most of you don’t understand this.
