Quotation
Douglas Adams on age and reactions to new technology
In The Salmon of Doubt, Douglas Adams sorts all of technology by one variable: how old you were when it showed up.
Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works. Anything that’s invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it. Anything invented after you’re thirty-five is against the natural order of things.
