We take written language for granted. But it's actually the most important human invention, when you really think about it. Nothing else comes close.
Why aren't we spending more to optimizing it?
I mean we certainly have and it evolves on its own.... but such a fundamental component deserves more directed attention. Also fascinating is the role that emojis have played recently, as a form of written language. They transcend spoken languages unlike alphabets, yet their meaning is far less precise.
