To be fair, one of my kids is an engineer, and definitely has several
computers. But the others who are not, do not have personal computers,

I think development environments will follow the people onto their
preferred platforms, and will change or adapt as necessary. So the
kind of computing we are used to, with a "computer", may become more

what we think of as mainstream will become "retro" or "vintage". Most
of my acquaintances who are 20 or 30 years younger than me, or my
now-grown children, already think using a "computer" is kind of a
"boomer" thing.

few apps.
So what. How many people fix their own cars, TVs, etc.
