I suppose I should be happy that some Fortran code I wrote back in school wasn't in Github. One of the things I look for in people is their ability to learn, and to do that they have to challenge themselves, to re convince themselves when they do something that it is still the right thing to do, the right path to take, and when they discover new information or new insights they adapt their behavior appropriately.

It makes me wonder if folks growing up in the permanent digital foot print age will be able to escape their early years. There is a reason police records for minors are often sealed, so as adults the things they did as kids don't permanently stain their lives. It is the basis for the right to be forgotten movement in the EU as far as I can tell.
