I was recently listening to the short story "When Sysadmins Ruled the Earth" by cory doctorow. This came up and I started crying. I have no nostalgia for this time period (I was less than 5 yo when this was written) but I do have nostalgia for this sentiment. Due to the technology delay I got experience a part of this when networks were being rolled out in India. Nobody really knew how to operate it or how it worked entirely. Discovering networks and connecting with people from around the world was a revelation. I miss that feeling. But I can't figure out if that feeling is lost because I grew up or because that sentiment just doesn't exist these days.
