@TheStalwart In my periodization of the Internet, there are five eras:
The Beginning (1982-1990)
The Wild West (1991-2008)
The Corporatization (2009-2016)
The Post-Corporatization (2017-2024)
TBD Current Era (2025 to ?)
@conorsen My north Fulton public school experience (starting from 5th grade 18ish years ago) was that there was a clear caste system in the school of the T&G kids vs the not. Once you’d enter a track, you’d pretty much not interact with those on the other.

@mouthofmorrison No worries! I’ll play around with the open data y’all have. BTW, convince folks to send you to Tanna — that volcano is even cooler in person!
One of my bigger surprises—entering the field of startup innovation as a naive engineer—is how long slick marketing can keep what are obviously unworkable technical ideas alive. Years longer than what I would have thought possible.
In Pompeii, a graffito that reads “XIII K. Maias panem feci” survived the eruption and is with us 2000 years in the future. There’s something beautiful about some guy’s marker of the mundane — “on April 19th, I made bread” — and how that’s with us forever. Enjoy this April 19th.
