I like this take on new tech adoption from Douglas Adams.

any new technology is received differently by three different groups of people.

If you’re below the age of 15, it’s just the way things have always been.

If you’re between the ages of 15 and 35, it’s really cool and you might be able to get a job doing it.

If you’re above the age of 35, it’s unholy and against the order of society and will destroy everything.
