   30 years ago, I had a CD player that played CDs when you put the CDs in and pushed play. It was awesome.

   Now I have a laptop with orders of magnitude more computing power than what was needed to orchestrate the moon landing. I put a CD in it and it takes 5 minutes to figure out what just happened.

   Any sufficiently advanced technology will render the technology of the past indistinguishable from magic.
