As a (relatively) young dev, I always find it wild whenever I'm reminded that git is such a young tool, because it feels like it should be contemporaries with vim, perl, or even emacs with how fundamental it is to modern software development. Hell, I remember when python was the fancy new kid on the block, and even python2 is a full five years older than git.


I started working in 2012, and my colleagues used usb keys to pass projects around. I was a bit... surprised.


The thing that continues to feel strange to me is that Python is actually older than Linux.
