One friend of mine told that he read once that kids these days doesn't even know how to create a folder (or directory), is that true?
I was showing a co-op how to do something last year and told them to navigate through our department drive into whatever folder we were looking at.
They couldn't do it. They had somehow managed to get to the department drive in file explorer, but then completely fell apart when I narrated the names of the folders to go down into. Like I'd say "Go into 'desks and tables'" or whatever and I'd watch them drag their cursor past the Ds, past the Es, and then just click on something completely different. Like their brain just stopped working. It took us like 2 minutes to get less than 10 folders deep.
