Martin Hardee posted an excellent video on this subject yesterday, to make things efficient, I’ve posted it below.
Rarely have I seen such an accurate satire of humans faced with the adoption of new technology. My favorite quote: “Compared to the scroll, it takes longer to turn the pages of a book.” This all boils down to another one of Harding’s Laws: What you know is what you love. I still remember WordStar’s Control-KD to save a document and ESC-q-BANG to exit without saving in vi…Wordperfect was a step backward, Word was a giant leap backward…Ah progess, or our perception of progress. Thanks for the hearty chuckle Martin.
