Age vs Technology

I recently stumbled upon a great Douglas Adams quote:

"I've come up with a set of rules that describe our reactions to technologies:

 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.”"
