What the heck is going on with this "age cohort" crap? The guys pumping out the technology in the 90s were born in the 50s and 60s.
It was news to over 90% of the population, nothing to do with age. Sheesh.
- trealira 3y agoYeah, a lot of people who developed important technologies (TCP/IP: Vinton Cerf and Bob Kahn; Unix: Dennis Ritchie, Ken Thompson) were born in the 1940s. My grandmother is in the same age range, but barely knows how to use a cell phone. Many young people nowadays are apparently the same way. It seems like there's always been different groups of people with varying levels of familiarity with technology; it was never a generational divide.
