npub1k08pe3kghynslu5gh9cqyguud2lyk5fl84wqm073tzxqnmk04ygskh6xvn (npub1k08…6xvn) my point was that contrasting the lack of apparent longevity of things being made/designed today with things that have lasted a long time may be a red herring or even a dead end.
i'm not sure that the things that have lasted a long time generally have longevity designed into them. i suspect it's mostly an accident, and not a design decision. that would in turn suggest that trying to design for longevity may be a fools errand.
how much this is true of computer-related stuff .. unclear
