Karm City

Congestion

Computer screens and highways are fraternal twins.

Highways
During rush hour, typical inefficiencies that arise can often be solved by adding additional lanes. Over time, however, the practice of adding real estate loses its effect, resulting in cluttered roads. Somehow, as more lanes are added, more cars miraculously manage to fill in the extra space.

Computer Screens
On small screens, typical inefficiencies that arise can often be solved by setting a higher resolution. Over time, however, the practice of adding real estate loses its effect, resulting in cluttered screens. Somehow, as higher resolutions are set, the same application windows miraculously manage to fill in the extra space.

This is something that city planners and dual-monitor-wielding programmers refuse to admit.
