They'd figure it out just like you figured out how to use computers, GPS, radio, television, CB's, etc. Just because they're young doesn't mean they're stupid.
"Smarter" in some new areas..."dumber" in other areas
My 12 years in SunLabs had us 'old' guys reviewing that current crop
of summer interns on whether we wanted them back next year, or offer
them a job
Smart in that they would pass any written exam +100% but failed in
common sense. Actually dangerous in the lab with some pretty wacky
designs so out it
We coined them 'Green light, Red light designers'. If the simulation
came back with no vectors...Green light and done. Red light...they'd
fix all of the vectors, reran the simulatiuon and then say they were done
No clue on things out in the real world, or seemingly clueless.
Not all...the good ones we all liked/loved had spent time out in the
real world falling out of trees, playing with dangerous things. Another
term that fits..."we've gone too far from the farm"
Car pooled with one we hired. A cryptologist (math and language major)
Scared the heck out of me and was the last time I rode with her.
She dived into the braking space of a double trailer semi...the nailed
her brakes to make the off ramp. The semi blew his air horns
Asked her about that and she just said that is why they have brakes...not
understanding the laws of physics behind all of that
