A friend shared a post from someone else that was talking about this article. I’ve quoted the text from that post below:
This is a 1996 guide on how to help someone use a computer. It’s strikingly resonant with ‘how to be a parent’, or really ‘how to help anyone with anything’. A nice example of “the universal within the particular”
It’s kind of amazing how relevant this still is, 28 years later.
I mean it’s all pretty generic. Would pretty much apply to helping someone with any task, with a few exceptions.
