As a millennial it feels like we were at an apex of technology literacy. One of the major motivational factors for me was thinking the next generation was going to be more well equipped than mine. So id better keep my head down and work hard because these kids that coming up with tablets from the start are going to eat my lunch with whatever this new common core stuff is. To me we were just the youngest generation that really had tech at a young age so it seems natural that all the older kids were progressively less technologically capable. But at some point you look over your shoulder at who is coming up and it like... Oh no.
