Those kids on HN think that everything cool was invented last summer by some new college grad, funny thing is most of stuff was already invented in 70's but who would care about prehistory of computing.

Yea. I totally remember Web Browsers, Big Data, and Terabyte hard drives back in the 70's. It's too bad that these things were lost to the ages, only to be re-invented in the present.
New names for old ideas.
Based on that, SpaceX isn't a big deal, because of the Apollo program, right?
Especially because of the Apollo program. SpaceX for all its efficiency, just goes to show how far the present and past few generations have dropped the ball.
