Tech generally suffers from not knowing / remembering our own history. Wish more people wrote books cataloging these (recent past) times. At least the 2010s have better records.https://twitter.com/vgr/status/1170185523303858177 …
They do. Nobody reads them. In tech we prefer to reinvent wheels rather than dig up history and that’s generally a healthy hacker-ethos bias. Need the boldness to throw stuff out and start fresh even if it means a slightly sad history of discarded ideas and forgotten bunny trails

Yep. Being able to start anew is a huge advantage. But historical context can be helpful in pattern matching. E.g. if you haven’t seen a liquidity crunch yet, it’ll be useful to know what it’s looked like in the past.
