Do you think millennials who grew up with the early Internet and home computers will be as bad with future technology as boomers are with current technology?

My wife and I started talking about this after she had to help an old lady at the DMV figure out how to use her iPhone to scan a QR code. We're in our early 40s.

You should see my zoomer partner and friend try to work a computer. They all grew up on iPads 😅

Yeah, this is a thing. I know a lot of younger folks who don’t really have a clue about how to do something if they don’t have iOS version whatever or some other bespoke interface. (And no, I’m not a boomer)

CLI ultimately runs the world, and the younger folks who understand CLI are probably at a ratio roughly even to the other generations.
