I’m kind of sick of being into tech. Everything is riddled with ads and speculative investment. You have to manage your expectations so much because everything has a good likelihood of turning into garbage at a moments notice. It’s just not fun anymore. I know I’m probably a bit nostalgia blinded, but I miss the mid-late 2000s and early 2010s so much. Games were new and interesting, tech was moving at a lightning fast pace, things were fun.
I know it’s more complicated than that, and there are reasons things are how they are, but fuck man. Anyway, off my chest.
the entirety of human knowledge
That’s grossly overselling the Internet. Unless what you want to know is either in vogue, or makes someone money, there’s a solid chance you won’t be able to find any good information on it. God forbid you should want to learn about something which shares a name with a completely different, but much more popular, thing.
And speaking as someone who very specifically does NOT want the newest things, they try very damn hard to force it by constantly updating standards so older tech is no longer compatible/usable (2018 is not at all old in my books).
Wikipedia would be a good example against you argument. I can find out details of the reign of Caesar Augustus as well as how many valence electrons are on a carbon atom. Neither of those is in vogue nor particular money makers and I know exactly where to find the info just by searching Wikipediea. Additionally, all the sources are linked so I can go down a rabbit hole on any deeper version of the topic if I want.
You listed one of the most popular historical figures, by far, and some physics/chemistry, which I can assure you is involved in making enormous amounts of money, as someone in the nanotechnology field.
