When people ask "What are the AI tells that you notice?" the "rule of three" comes to mind immediately:

"Our modem was 14,400 bps. Yes, bits per second. Not megabits. Not gigabits. Not fiber."

"It was not massive. It was not scalable. It was not "cloud native."

"Every business would have a BBS. Every community would have one. Every company would run its own small digital place"

"The Web was the future. Not BBSs. Not CD-ROM encyclopedias. Not isolated digital islands. The Web."
