Neanderthals had a technology that was so elegant it lasted essentially unchanged for 100,000 years.

I consider the fact that process specs I wrote 20 years ago are still in use a MAJOR accomplishment.

100,000 years. That’s humbling.

Considering the way technology has been improving at an accelerating pace for the past 150 years or so, so do I. [admires nully!]
