7. New Technology
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.
[Douglas Adams, Peter Guzzardi, Terry Jones, The Salmon of Doubt]

12. Final Thoughts
“Manifestly it is better to use simple
tools expertly than to possess a
bewildering assortment of complicated
gadgets and either neglect or use them
incompetently”
