I miss the time between 2005 and 2010 when I still had a feeling of control over the IT landscape. I grew up with the internet. I could move everything with a LAMP server and Notepad++. Nobody else knew shit. The grownups came to me for advice. I took a Pascal course in highschool, the only other student was the principal of the school. I know more than ever today. But I lost touch with the fabric of the information age. I could do things, but I don‘t do them.
