🍃 The Truth Is Always Made of Details

'The Information Age is clearly pushing us towards low-res conclusions on questions that warrant deep, long, high-res consideration.' If you were asked to draw a leaf you might draw a green, vaguely eye-shaped thing with a stem — but a real elm leaf has rounded serrations, each tipped by the end of a raised vein, and far more going on than that. A beautifully extended metaphor and welcome reminder that real things exist in essentially infinite resolution, and looking closer always reveals more, often not what you'd expect.
