#generations
I made a poll to see what generation do programmers in the Fediverse belong. 1,184 of you participated, and this resulted in the following distribution:
82.88 of you reported being a Baby Boomer.
473.6 of you said you belong to Generation X.
532.8 of you said you are Millennials.
82.88 of you said you don't belong to any of these three.
I was surprised to see these many Generation Xers at 40%, vs Millenials at 45%.

To teraz po polsku
Potem są:
2005- … – Zetki
od 2016 – dzieci 500+
Kto nie pamięta Zimy Stulecia i Stanu Wojennego, ten milennials. Boomersi za to w PL kończą się na 56, czyli z końcem stalinizmu.
Polskie realia historyczne i doświadczenia pokoleniowe nie dają się 1:1 przełożyć na amerykańskie #Generations

“Those people” or The Others™ are your children and grandchildren.
Due to the #exam period, the interior of the #library has been characterised by more or less motivated #students over the last few weeks - but every now and then there have also been views like the one in this snapshot.
Our library is not just a place of #learning, but also a #meeting place. #Books connect #generations - and we think that's great!

All claims about #generations are actually eternal cliches about age group. Young people have always moved jobs (voluntarily or otherwise) more than older people. This is still true, but 15-24 less mobile than in the past. Still, nonsense about Gen Z job-hoppers gets run.

#LifeExpectancy rose rapidly in the first half of the 20th century. But will those born between 1939 and 2000 benefit from these rapid gains in #longevity? A recent study suggests that none of these #generations will reach 100 years of age on average.

All of it has passed into the epoch of history, like photos, artists, and musicians.
People became so infected by the algorithm of the cool Wikipedia that they started calling it intelligence.
Maybe I, stuck in the era of the 2000s/2010s, remember it as a lively and humane time...

For this year's #WorldPopulationDay, we reported on some of our research which provides a detailed picture of how #economic, #social and #policy factors interact to shape #fertility and #family choices.

Of course the republican degenerates criticised AOC pointlessly.
AOC is a better person. Saintly, smart, kind. The image of child that brings pride to her grandparents and their grandparents. A scion of humanity. Of kindness. Of the civilisation coming.
While the children of the greatest generation make their father's weep.
Of course the Republican degenerates strike out, in shame.
So, where are you going on vacation this year?
Why this simple question reveals the biggest generational conflict of our time.

My mum received an invitation to a #classreunion and I wonder why I was never invited to one by my former class mates. Don’t they want me there? Are they unable to find me because I am not on Facebook? Or is this simply no longer a thing in my generation? 
I mean, not that I would want to go anyway, I just want to know.
