You take it back, my Myspace page was the peak of human coding abilities.
There's a 745 mile front of the Ukraine war where neither side have been able to pierce for months because of drone warfare. It's definitely not too early to worry about it.
Roblox is a better example. Giving people the tools to create shared experiences.

Any thoughts of representing topics across different notes or pages visually? I have always wanted something similar to the https://twitchatlas.com/ but for topics of interest to me. For example Quantum Physics would be a very large bubble. Within that bubble could be links to several sub-topics and branching out from there would be related topics.

I know I am not articulating this the best. I am a visual learner and going through pages and pages in OneNote and cherrytree has been ineffective.

I've read it for the first time today and although I recognize the cringe factor, I recognize something else much more deeply. Which is that feeling of alienation. Lost not because I am necessarily more intelligent than my peers, just thinking in different ways entirely. Being forced to align my thought processes was torture and it regularly failed. I wish I understood better what was happening as it happened.

To be honest, after reading this document, I believe it contain MUCH more information than just how to conduct a code review.
One thing that I am fully with the author on is that the desktop metaphor is in need of an update. Many of the terms we used to soften the transition from typewriters, pens, paper, and filing cabinets are not going to be relevant for younger generations.

Some have never cared or either stopped caring altogether because of the average user's apathy. Not that I agree with it, but I can see why someone would ignore that con in favor of the pros.
Thank you, this stuff interests the hell out of me. I'll never be at MIT, but I can read it in my spare time!
Thank you for putting so eloquently what I was feeling while reading that. Half way through, I remembered that I had read that article years ago, and it had me worried at the time. Since then, we've seen no drop in iPhone sales, that's for sure.
