    Exactly. Basically nobody in their 30s can, say, drive a manual car without a synchro, unless they specifically practiced it, because there is zero need to learn that skill. And basically nobody under 20 can set port forwarding on a router because there is basically zero need for that skill.

    When I wanted sound on Arkanoid, I HAD to learn IRQ settings, so I did. But now that stuff just works.
