Yes, I think I do okay with tech, for the most part, but I'm sure my daughter would disagree.

The truism is from Douglas Adams, The Salmon of Doubt (2002)
A set of rules that describe our reactions to technologies:
1. Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works.
2. Anything that's invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it.
3. Anything invented after you're thirty-five is against the natural order of things.
