“The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun” | Ecclesiastes 1:9For most of human history, knowledge was scarce. It had to be discovered, recorded, preserved, and transmitted with care. Today, we live in the opposite condition. Whatever we know or talk about has already been published, spoken, or written somewhere. This was true first of literature, then of history, and it became overwhelmingly true with the internet.
