          Guess all my kids are Alphas. Maybe that'll be a blessing considering the insults lobbied at Gen Z (and Millennials... that I don't like since I'm "barely" a millennial). I prefer the term Xennial or some bullshit, at least. Again, my high school pal got a typerwriter as a graduation gift. No joke.

          BTW does this mean in the late 2030's the kids will be Generation Gamma?

            The boy is GenZ (which IOS ‘autocorrects’ to agent).

              Parents were silent (30,41)

                The picture says 2025 is still alpha. Did I fall asleep and miss a year (again)?

                I was only joking

                      What event(s) cause the "change" to a new generation?

                      Alpha - 12 years
                      Z - 17 years

                      etc

                        They will grow up to destroy autocorrect. That's a good thing. Software that tries to "help" me has become a pet peeve of mine.

                          I agree but then I experimented with turning it off and saw how many typos it actually corrects.

                          We’ve gotten much faster at typing on phones with the help of autocorrect. Without it, if you keep up your habitual speed, it’s a disaster.

                            The predictive stuff is nice, I'll grant you. That's what makes it faster.
