Nothing like birthdays to make you feel old. I subscribe to the Dilbert cartoon newsletter which comes every day by email. I like it because the anti-management bias and because the project management dilemmas are suffered everywhere not just in IT.
At the moment it is running an anti-ageist cartoon series at the moment:
I have been using personal computers for 25 years. This does not mean I am as obsolete as the first computer I had, even if my CPU has not got faster, or my memory bigger, and it's true that I cost more than I did then. Not a case of Moore's Law, then. But like Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance, I have a lot more experience accumulated, by fiddling or whatever.
This conversation also includes "I remember when a house in London cost £10,000 (not £1million), a loaf of bread cost a shilling, and my first television programme. Any other "matures" want to join in this game?
