I think it’s time we started teaching technology like we teach biology. Starting with recognizing and classifying common species of tech, dissecting a few specimens, looking through microscope at some stuff, teaching design in an evolutionary-history way, old tech = dinosaurs...
I actually think first principles are overrated and do more harm than good if overemphasized. “Middle principles” of engineering are where much of the intelligence and wisdom are to be found.
