We let technology handle perfection so we can be lazy. Typing is forgiving. Mobile autocorrect is even more forgiving. Handwriting is unforgiving. Every twitch, quiver, and mistake stares back at you.
This makes accomplishment easier. But for most of us, if we can be lazy, we will be. And so we atrophy.
What medium in history has been more error tolerant than typing? Does this encourage laziness and a lack of diligence?
Going to disable my backspace key and turn off autocorrect as an experiment.
