I love the quote "Our industry does not respect tradition - it only respects innovation". The most profound words I've read all day.
What would our industry be like if it respects tradition? Less reinventing the wheel every decade?
- vacri 13y agoGiven that the internet as the public knows it is only 20 years old, there's really not that much tradition. A kid in 1990 wouldn't say "I wanna be a web developer", because that job simply did not exist - it would still be several years before Mosaic came along (it's just had it's 21st birthday)
- porker 13y agoFor the internet perhaps not. For our industry - we can trace it back to the 1950s or 1960s (I know there were earlier uses of computers, but I've never sen them as similar enough to our pattern).
