Meh. It&#x27;s like saying that the fundamentals of film-making are writing and acting -- except writers and actors are nothing without an actual camera, and if you don&#x27;t know how to place the camera and how to cut film produced by such camera, you will never get a film done. Cameras change, but you will never have a camera that miraculously materializes in all the right places to take exactly the shots you imagined. In the same way, some things will never change on the hardware side: you will always have inputs, outputs, memory, storage, human interfaces, power management, booting and so on.
