RE: 400 Years

The chance to receive a free education today is precious. I think it's crazy to see the efforts being made to make education accessible to all.

What's also crazy is to see the evolution of all this, from physically protected books under glass to digitally accessible resources on an almost unlimited scale. Maybe later we'll be putting computers under glass ^^

We underestimate all these developments, which are nonetheless part of our heritage.

We're lucky to have had free education and I bet those countries where education is not free, would love to be in this position.

I went to an exhibition last year, which had the title of Technology Yesterday, or something like that, exhibition old computers, typewriters, calculators and so on. It was quite shocking. I can drop you the links to those posts if you like.

That is very true and I see my old phones and cameras when I clean my drawers and thin of how much technology evolved and life in general. I'm planning to donate them to a museum 🙂

I think that in a few years' time, many museums will want them. I know that somewhere in my grandparents' house there's an old DynaTac 8000. I also know it's very, very expensive now.

But apart from being expensive, it seems to me that it's in a few museums.
