Resilient technologies aren’t retro—they’re ROOT: Robust, Open, Ongoing, Time-tested. In RDM, text-first small, composable tools beat opaque stacks. Emacs/Org(-babel) for literate workflows & provenance; Makefiles declare rebuilds; CLI atoms—curl, sed, awk, grep, diff, tar, rsync, cron, SQLite—keep steps inspectable, portable, rebuildable. DOI:
