Can’t predict the future, but I can see the past. Specifically the part of the past that used standards based implementations and boring technology. Love that I can pull up html with elements using ALL CAPs and table aligned content. It looks like a hot mess but it still works, even on mobile. Plain text keeps trucking along. Sqlite will outlive me. Exciting things are exciting but the world is made of boring.

Fun fact, the static generated by gamma radiation actually looks a lot like confetti with random pixels and streaks of pixels turning blue, yellow, red, green or a combination in true random fashion. I know this because I used to perform visual inspections on nuclear reactors.
