Being really good at using boring tech is better than being a noob with cool tech.

So as you get older and you get more competent, the relative benefits of boring tech grow.

Whereas if you’re a noob at everything, being a noob with cool tech is better.

If the problems are hard enough, and you are competent, you iterate on boring tech for a while to solve the hard problems, and then it becomes cool tech.
