Mainly regretting that so many people deliberately decide to become part of the problem and not part of the solution.
@_RyekDarkener_ @dlakelan I'm 60+ and sometimes regret having installed the first webserver @ my University and in the town, and having argued for www instead of gopher. Sheesh, youngsters!

@sb @dlakelan Intel, Microsoft, NXP Semiconductors, and government contracts were where I worked. All those projects I worked on. All those people I interacted with. Some of that shit was cool. Now? I sit in a guard shack waving people through. And for some reason, I'm more content than ever. It's a boring job, but someone's gatta do it.
@mrgrumpymonkey @dlakelan

I dont regret anything. I built something to empower people. Some of them used it wisely, some of them didnt. I also built crap that was not useful to anybody. After 25 years i still want to improve "stuff". Users changed and so did I. Time marches on.... -

@dlakelan They're a step behind the nerds on the Gemini BBS who are already bemoaning that the Fediverse has already passed it's own Eternal September.

I always thought if I could get my pictures of nekked peoples instantly instead of watching they load one line at a time the internet would be perfect.
Now I know I'm wrong. -

I must giggle.
In 1983 I sat in college brand new Intro to Comp class and effectively "dabbled in Pong"
I ran away as fast as I could back to the theater.Yes, 1983.
