So which criminal is the worst drug dealer? Now I think I have about seen everything there is to see in a class. But it was a great point about not being too close to what you are researching. I guess that is just something to struggle with – obviously, most of us would not have gotten into this field if we didn’t love something about technology. So we are all in danger of getting too close with the end user. Something to look out for.

From reading Bernstein, I understood that he believes we should embrace the struggle between modernity and postmodernity. After class discussion, I think I understand more the major differences between the more pragmatic moderns and the relativistic-ish post-moderns. If any of those are actually real words, that is. So I am wondering if this puts Bernstein in the pragmatic camp in some way. It seems very practical to embrace the problems with both sides of the modern/postmodern design. Maybe I still don’t fully understand that yet, but that is something that came to me as I am typing this.
