I dunno how old you guys are but just in case... Schools never had good computing classes. When I was in school in the UK in the 90s we had MS Office lessons and that was about it.

Actually the UK took steps a few years ago to fixing that. Apparently they have actually computing classes now, but I don't have kids of the appropriate age in school yet so I don't know if it's really as good as we'd hope.

Estonia used to have solid school classes since 2000s and now offers programming pretty early, but overall tech literacy is at an all time low.

Is it really though? I'd need to see evidence of that before I believe it.

I have some teacher friends who get the broad avarage. Entire lessons get brought to a standstill since the avarage student can't even handle logging in.

I mean... that's how it was in the 90s too.
