Re: "knowledge that cheaper millennials lacked"

True story:

Years ago (around 2008 time frame), I was working on a self project to create a ISAM multi value database (thing nosql type ). I was working thru all the b-tree theories and was debating whether or not to have leaf node records or external block store records.

I decided to post my results and ask for anyone that wanted to help, on some forums I belonged to.

One of the millennial's posted back

"why do you want to do something so ancient as ISAM / b-tree, you should write the project in SQL !"

AT that point I decided that they AIN'T teaching theory any more in school ...
