This is surprisingly low effort for the economist. It makes a lot of incorrect points, and a lot of really obvious vague ones. The thing about smartphones making tech skills more common is borderline nonsensical though.
I've been told on and off my whole working life that tech jobs will dissapear because kids today all grew up with internet/computers/phones. Lol. If anything I think many are less competent than avg boomer. At least the boomers were scared into learning. The net generation just seems to assume things and don't actually understand what they are doing. The second something goes a little wrong they are helpless.
I kid you not I said "check the monitor" to some twentysomething and they said "i don't know tech jargon" so I said "display, screen?" " IDK" so I went and pointed this part you look at with your eyes and they said " oh the glass"
