Yes, this reminds me of when I finally grasped the usefulness of social protocols. I thought they were terribly stupid wastes of time when I was younger (say, till about age 22). Of course by then I learned what wonderful things network protocols were. Then I read a paper regarding Japanese culture that compared social protocols to network protocols, indicating that they were useful in much the same way. "The scales fell from my eyes" and I felt very stupid for not making the connection before.
I failed to find such paper in google, and i would really like to read it. Maybe some more helpfull hints about it? Or possibly a link?
I can't seem to find it online. I have a vague recollection it might have been from the proceedings of ETHICOMP2007 in Tokyo - I'll check when I get a chance.
