I have to admit, I have questions about the impact of spending too much time deep inside machine logic territory.
It’s some strange inner calling and mysterious curiosity that draws you into.
I've personally found them to be useful after I've already gained the knowledge to make a significant change, and the trip can help to actualize the understanding of how that knowledge fits into the greater world as a whole.
