Are those really rebellions? TBL was a pretty milquetoast guy who built on top of a lot of things before him: TCP/IP, server OS, interconnected networks, and of course text-based predecessors to the web like Archie. He didn't wear all black and call everyone an idiot and magically produce something wonderful. He stood on the shoulders of giants and reached a little further.
- m52go 12y agoDo you need to be a black-wearing, idiot-calling rebel in order to be a creative genius? Of course not. But you need to observe reality, question it, and then act on your question. That's it. Milquetoast guys can do it too.
