Back in my day we had pedals under the desk hooked up to a generator to generate sufficient electrickery to power the hooziwatsits that read punch cards that we had to manually create with a pair of sharp scissors. Our database was a sturdy box holding the punch cards in correct order, and filtering or sorting was all done by hand. User output was handled by copying the cards and posting them to all our users...

hosting accounts and had to store everything in flat files and string
everything together with server-side includes and Perl! You try to tell
today's young programmers that and they won't believe you.
