I guess? Dude's my age, and it's becoming clear to me that a lot of my contemporaries are losing their ability to adapt even faster than I am. I think it's fine for him to question it
for him, or maybe
for his demographic, but I think it's a mistake to universalize that.
Maybe I'm just lucky here. I found the BBS scene when I was ~12, so remote communication has been an important part of my social life since before my voice changed. So maybe I have less adaptation to do.
But either way, I don't think my fellow olds should be judging technology as if our experience is universal. If I want to know the true limits of remote collaboration, I'm going to look at the 12-25 demographic segment, as they have a lot less to unlearn than people my age.
