[…] pop culture holds a disdain
for history.
Pop culture is all about identity and feeling like you’re
participating.
It has nothing to do with cooperation, the past or
the future—it’s living in the present.
I think the same is true of
most people who write code for money.
They have no idea where
[their culture came from]—and the Internet was done so well that
most people think of it as a natural resource like the Pacific Ocean,
rather than something that was man-made.
