So when the author says it’s the 30-50 year olds that know how to use computers, today it’s the 40-60 year olds. I’d say it goes older than that.
One thing that used to bug me on reddit was youngsters going on about how over-50s wouldn’t know how to use a computer. That hasn’t been the case for decades now.
Nobody knows how to use a computer. If you’re not in a tech field (and sometimes even if you are!), the vast majority of people are totally clueless with computers. Young, old, rich, poor, the truly unifying experience among all peoples is that they can’t understand this device they use every damn day.
