> All things in tech are seasonal. I think this is maybe the most important point in this entire thing. It's not just tech. Things change. The funny thing is things change now faster than ever before, yet we still have that tendency not to notice while we're in it which we always have had. To be honest it's part of why I tend to try to put some bits about tech history in my blog posts - it puts a perspective on life more generally which helps me psychologically.
