He means fingertrick development, algorithm development and other development in the mentality and general technique of speedcubing. Also the lack of resources back then.

Maybe I don't get it, but isn't it very insulting for the one concerned?

Mostly our knowledge (like Thom described), but also better cubes (both mechanism details and production, really nice you can just buy ready great cubes now instead of having to work a lot on cubes only to make them mediocre by today's standards).
Yah, sorry, sometimes I can't help it. I just found his remark quite silly and pointless and sometimes I like to paraphrase.

That was the greatest competition of all time and i had more fun here in bangkok than at any other competition. It was so fun seeing everyone again, and meeting new people. Congrats to Michal on his title, and congrats to all the other winners, especially Feliks

Man... Felik's average in the final was his least fast in a year... sooooo unlucky to have that in the final. 
I saw the results and was like waaaaaat! I wasn't expecting those results in the 3x3 final.
However, congrats to Michał Pleskowicz for first and 3x3 and only person to place top 4 in 3x3 2H and OH!
Congrats to Faz for 2, 3, 4 and 5.
Congratulations to Zane! I had predicted him for Multi and then he won single BLD!
I wasn't there, and was never going to be there, but it sounds like it was an awesome World Championship!

I love that stat. It means you really have to push yourself to become the world champion. No world champion got an easy victory, which is as it should be.

So...I was bored. I also wanted to find out how various nations did at the World Championships. I decided to find out the hard way...by getting the results myself. It has been done like the WCA statistics where they add up all the single and average rankings of a person, however, with this, it is the highest average ranking of a country.
Top five nations:
1. Japan - 126
2. Hungary - 128
3. USA - 151
4. Australia - 201
5. Sweden - 251
Here is the full rankings...
Next to the nations are the amount of competitors from that nation and red means that that country did not have anyone competing in that event, so I gave them last place +1 (even in BLD events where the person who came last had DNF's, they still qualified for the event, so the nation that did not qualify should go behind them).
Enjoy!

I just had a look at the pyraminx final and there is a huge different between 1st and 16th. 4.67-8.26 I'm surprise how big of a different this is especially for a World Championship.

The second place average for the sq1 final would be ranked 51st in the world

Nice one EeeeeWarne, I wouldn't have expected Hungary to be that high up the list. Pretty interesting.
