Depends, in some technical fields it’s starting to flip because kids don’t need to learn computer skills as much when they just use iPhones and tablets that “just work”.

Yeah. My friend from high school works in high school. Among others he teaches IT. Compared to today’s kids we were hackers. We knew how to crack a game, install a driver, replace some hardware. Today’s kids don’t know how to download a file.

I went to school with someone who didnt like deadlines, so she would do the following:

• fill a word document with nonsense
• open word document in hex editor
• corrupt file through some means she googled
• submit the file to our submission system
• wait for teacher to open the file, get ‘corrupted’ message

She’d do the work at her own pace in the mean time, and when she got asked for another copy because it was corrupted, shed hand it up. She graduated with me, and I dont know what she does now but I hope she’s in infosec.
