> I am 25. I am very interested in your generation and the phenomenon of nascent tech rejection. I think it may be a great hope for us finally solving many problems in software engineering that are more to do with culture and society than bits and bytes. There's a famous Douglas Adams witticism: 1. Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works. 2. Anything that's invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it. 3. Anything invented after you're thirty-five is against the natural order of things. He was absolutely spot-on for my generation. But this doesn't hold any longer, and I've been pondering why. I think my generation saw tech as a hope, as rebellious and progressive, and exciting from the get-go. We were raised on mostly optimistic sci-fi and ideas of space exploration etc. Today, kids are born into a world where tech represents a threat. It's systems of control and stuff that makes their parents unavailable, frustrated and sick. They inutially accept that until reaching teens when they become rebellious and independent thinkers who reject that way of suffering and subjugation. Am I close to the mark?
