DL, NoSQL, VR and Crypto all came about 2009-2012

I just had a shower thought that a lot of "screw fundamentals, let's just write code" tech was turbo charged after the 2008 crisis: * Advances in hardware have driven renewed interest in deep learning. In *2009*, Nvidia was involved in what was called the "big bang" of deep learning, "as deep-learning neural networks were trained with Nvidia graphics processing units (GPUs)". * Johan Oskarsson, then a developer at Last.fm, reintroduced the term NoSQL in early *2009* when he organized an event to discuss "open-source distributed, non-relational databases". * The [Bitcoin] currency began use in *2009*, when its implementation was released as open-source software. * VR 2012? Obviously all of these ideas existed before at various stages of development, but it makes one wonder where all of them would have been if the printer was started.
