> So the youth are always correct and always an improvement?

I don't think this is an issue of "the youth", inasmuch it's an issue with "the old" struggling to understand a world where people don't play by their rules anymore.

Pay attention to the absurdity: a blogger complaining that today's junior devs don't do the hard work of... asking questions in stack overflow? That's their baseline of expertise and knowledge-seeking?

I'm old enough to remember "the old" complaining that junior devs can't code anymore because they just paste nonsense they copy from stack overflow.

How times have changed.

No, but the best of them will generally do great things with the tools they are afforded. Just like all the previous generations.

Always is too strong of a word but if you look at the history of human development I'd say that in general each generation is an incremental improvement over the previous one.
