      I wonder sometimes what would be the oldest extant word based on technology no longer in use. Taping an interview? Dialing someone? https://twitter.com/hels/status/679059633949011970 …

      “Yes” in terms of “yes, of course, somewhere” but also “no, not in common use and the evolved meaning superseded the original for pretty much everybody, probably including people who still make carbon copies.” :·)

          Replying to @mwichary @SrbhGaur and

          It’s all shades of gray, of course, but I don’t believe many would say carbon copy/paper as a term/tech in common use. (Case in point: it was the term in this thread suggested by the most people.)
