    The Joy of Slow Computing
    1

      As in Slow Food—with its unhygienic soil, disorderly farmers’ markets, and inconvenient seasons—the annoyances of Slow Computing have become pleasures. With community-made software, there’s no one to blame but us, the community. We’re not perfect, but we’re working on it.

      I really feel like the analogy works. I have for example begun to take pleasure in the messiness of vegetables bought at a farmers' market compared to the seeming perfection of those a a grocery store.
