Remember in the 90s, when teens were more tech savvy than adults, and everyone assumed that the savviest would just keep getting younger? Now it's 2017, and the people who were teens in the 90s are the most tech savvy generation and probably will be until they die.

Kids don't grow up with computers any more, they grow up with iPhones. If it's possible to learn to code on an iPhone, it's despite Apple's best efforts.

@mogwai_poet I remember seeing programming kits from Apple last ... whatever that Apple event is called. But there was a sweet spot for us 90s teens where the new tech hit just as we were ready to understand it each time.

It will really hurt when that stops being true: probably the next tech wave after Blockchain/Deep Learning. I can't wait, though ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿค“
