Another blog on how Pinterest algorithm changes and how they affect users.

The Digital Human discusses the metaphor of the body as a machine. The understanding of the human body as mechanical is what has ultimately improved technology. Are human bodies a product of design or evolution? Is technology designed around us or does it evolve too?
