I see both kinds of Boomers. My dad, a boomer, is in the tech industry. He is a software engineer. My grandpa was also a software engineer. Everyone I know from his side of the family has been in tech.

And then there is every boomer I know that isn't my own family and they are practically luddites. I know the former can exist. But it seems rare.
