We are at the very beginning of the history of computing. The age of print lasted 500 years, and there's every sign the age of computers will be longer. The notion that anything we are doing now has been perfected is hard to swallow. Especially given the way each innovation creates new opportunities for improvement.

I'm willing to assume that this is the best of all possible worlds, that everybody did the best they could in the moment. But having all that history behind us gives us lessons such that tomorrow's best possible world is surely better than today's.

I agree that we should have less technical arrogance and jackassery in the future. But that emotional immaturity is also part of today's best possible world.
