I've always been pretty curious about what technology will just baffle me, and at what age that tech wall will him me. I'm middle aged and tech is still easy for me. But I know that day will come.

I think it will have to be a completely different paradigm.

The boomers for instance were all into machines... like cars and engines. They services their own car... knew how to tune a timing belt etc. I still see old timers restoring and tinkering with cars or bikes etc.

I'm middle aged too and I think computers and software will always be intuitive. It's our "car engines".

The things which we'll struggle with won't be computer based because we "get" that already. It'll have to be something out of left field for me I think.
