Flight reading

I really, really struggle buying reading material for a flight these days. The kindle doesn’t suffice since it has to be turned off for takeoff and landing. Which leaves me with newspapers and magazines, or the tinnitus of my mind.

I think it’s a sign of having read and assimilated so much knowledge that I cannot get interested in much of what the newsstand offers.

Which makes me realize that I have not just been absorbing information, but also systematically modeling the underlying human systems. Once the model is complete and tested to be working I lose interest, somewhat, in further details. Surprising.
