    Can confirm. I taught a college freshman CS class last year. The keeds didn’t know what files or folders were.

      I’ve heard this from other educators as well! What do you think the ramifications are down the line with people knowing less and less about how computers actually function?

      I mean, I guess mechanics have jobs because most people know how to use a gas pedal and steering wheel, but not how an internal combustion engine works?
