Claims of Age Bias Rise, but Standards of Proof Are High
I still maintain there&#x27;s age-cohort bias (anti boomer, etc.), not strictly age bias.<p>In 2000, I remember most people over 30 being clueless about the Internet (given that the population who were familiar with the Internet in the 80swas so small...that core group was of course super clueful, but was of measure zero vs. people who were learning about it in college every year.)<p>Now, it&#x27;s largely been the case that anyone in engineering&#x2F;tech has had extensive contact with the Internet, even if not a CS person, since the 90s.  30s&#x2F;40s today are a lot different from 15 years ago.<p>In 10-20y, there will be plenty of 50&#x2F;60 year olds who had grown up with the Internet.<p>So while this might be a problem now, it&#x27;s correcting itself with time.
