parental technology mismatch

When you ask your parents for the latest PlayStation, but instead you get older, more obscure gaming console Commodore CDTV / Philips CD-i / Casio Loopy because your parents don't want to get addicted to video games. Same as when you ask your parents for the latest smartphone, but instead you get Texas Instrument calculator that has always been the same since 1995, a Jewish flip phone, an MP3 nugget, and a digital camcorder because your parents don't want to get addicted to smartphone.

When I asked my parents for the latest PlayStation, I ended up with a Commodore CDTV instead, highlighting the classic parental technology mismatch.

PM Technology

PM (Pure Magic) Technology is slang used by engineers. Machines that run on PM Technology are the opposite of AM Technology, which do actual work. Machines that run on PM Technology don't have to work. They just have to "look" like they work to a lay person. They are low quality, low reliability and undocumented machines that provide erroneous data for convincing non-technical people. Poor managing is typically the cause of PM Technology. Corporate managers like to use the bad data provided by PM technology to spin a story that sounds like AM Technology. At the end of the day, the lay man believes that PM technology is the same as AM Technology while the engineers always know that it runs on nothing but Pure Magic.

Young Engineer: "Did you see the data that the bossman presented at that meeting today? That didn't make sense at all did it?"
Old Engineer: "I made the machine that created that data. That thing doesn't really work. It runs on PM technology!"
Young Engineer: "Shouldn't we fix that?"
Old Engineer: "That's not in the budget!"
