Yeah, so let me be the Gen Xer I am, and we‘ve all seen this before, maybe on a different level, but if you take music, there were synthesizers, drum machines, MIDI packs, loop libraries, and every time people were like „wow, you don‘t need to learn an instrument anymore“

@paul_rietschka And it is true, you can crank something cool sounding quickly. But then it invariably turns out that to go beyond that you need to get back and learn the basics, put in the hours, and then you got what you need to use the new tools to do something great.

@paul_rietschka This is not just me who did put in the hours and now I can‘t have the young folks get something without the pain I went through, this is the way our own brains work I am afraid. End of Gen X rant.
