This is a problem EE’s currently talk about. People good at analog electronics are starting to age out of the workforce. There are a ton of people who got into electronics 40+ years ago by fiddling with things. This is harder today than it was back when through hole was how components were made (though the maker movement has changed that trajectory IMO). I could easily see the same problem with CS in general as access to general computing becomes less populous. I’ve even heard rumor it’s happened to some degree already when people talk about an unusual age band for devs born around +/- 1975 who tend to have a particularly good grasp of computers due to growing up with the first personal computers.
