Tech illiteracy today is insane. I had to help my parents connect up the TV as a kid, and now I have to help my kids connect up their TV/PC. Obviously a lot wrong with that statement (I. E. Not everyone leans techy) but it does make me feel like my age group is the only ones that have a vauge idea what is going on
Trying to teach an intern how to generally use a computer, how a file structure works, physically pains me. The "youngins are naturally good with computers" myth is a myth now. It only worked for tech millennial that taught ourselves.
I think it's probably being in the age range that kinda straddled the time between now - when it's all an unshakeable piece of daily life - and the time before it existed / was commonplace. Having grown up before all of these world changing tech advances, and then being there for the ride, is just a singular experience and perspective neither our parents or our kids can possibly have.
I'm really grateful for having gotten to take the ride, but it does strike me as sad in a way.
