OK maybe not. Here are the themes:
* hidden systems, hidden rhythms
* inexhaustible technological hubris of silicone valley
* loneliness what does it mean to be "alone"
* the End Times, Prophecies
* New York City
* Ants
* the crippling self-doubt of academics
* how massive systems can fall apart
* the poorly rendered places on the edge of reality
It's hard to talk about it without really talking about it.
