WHY DISABLE IT? ITS CUISE CONTROL FOR COOL!

I'm kind of curious how late gen X and millennials will be at that age in regards to tech.

I work in software dev. I've interviewed 2 CS grads who did their whole degree on an iPad while acting as if its an accomplishment.

My engineers also religiously use ChatGPT. It has a tell in that all its code comments start with a capital letter without punctuation. All their merge requests where coding conventions were not followed and "help I'm stuck" non-working code has these comments.

They are super smart and hard workers. They just lack the experience of needing to figure shit out without aide because it didn't exist.

As long as their isn't some mass cognitive decline for that generation, I think there might be a dip in general technical knowledge when millennials that had to figure things out check out and all that's left are those who want to understand the tech they use.

In all fairness, there are Boomers out there who are tech-literate. Thing is, they only call for help when they have a real problem, so it's the other ones we remember.

There is a really easy fix for that. A proper training program instead of just expecting that people are born with the necessary skills. Having worked IT in a variety of capacities, including training and end-user support, I'm pretty sure cluelessness is a function of training and experience, not age.

Just wait until they’ve helped their 60+ y/o colleagues disable Caps Lock for the 50th time.

You have no idea how much rage you just unlocked.

I wouldn’t blame that on old age. I work with tards in their 20s and 30s who I’ve personally witnessed use caps lock instead of shift to capitalize one single letter at the beginning of a sentence. They also use the mouse to click in the text box that already has a blinking cursor to enter their username and then use the mouse again to select the password box instead of just using the tab key.
