Thanks to @AndrewLiptak for including the One Device in his roundup of SF & fantasy book recommendations for the @Verge this month, despite being off-genre—mostly, that is; there *is* a chapter that touches on how SF & culture influenced the iPhone theverge.com/2018/10/1/1782…

When workers automate their own duties, who should reap the benefits? Self-automators show that coders are in a unique position to negotiate with employers over which automation-derived gains should be kept by workers theatlantic.com/technology/arc…
