I really enjoyed this show. It’s fascinating and fun to take a walk down the technology development of yesteryear. I couldn’t help imagining how I would have interpreted the changes the characters saw - and recalling my own life at the time. One open question I remember being left with is how inevitable particular paths of technology development are? The show seems to create a world barreling towards a predestined future... where bright and creative people compete to get their first. I'm not sure how much I agree with that ... But I love that someone created a class curriculum that examine the many super interesting questions that come up. All I need now is a reading group of nerds to explore all the great content on the site with!

Just stumbled across this and blew my mind. I mean, already been there done that thru the whole series but this is well done/very fun/cool. Big love for HACF.
