I keep on getting a tech based analysis paralysis whenever I am world building. Not with fiction, books or otherwise, but with my own stories. Actual written stories of my own (even if they are only attempts at the moment) are difficult for me to write because I end up trying to flesh out every single little bit of the world. Since all my stories are sci-fi based it's always the technology that I am most focused on.
How does the easy, in house genetic modification work?
How does the outright untraceable long range communications network actually work?
How does the space suit work?

Instead of making up some technobabble I always end up trying to realistically find out how such a thing would work, distracting me from the writing and the actual story.

Silent letters, why?

Jesus fucking Christ, no. People making notes and dogearing and highlighting and shit in books are the absolute scum of society.
