I don't think that's the case. As an 80s home computing revolution kid, quite a lot of kids were into BASIC etc. To a certain extent we've lost that now.

We grew up in a time where you could buy a computer and you pretty much had to learn how to program it. Now, you can get away without needing to learn.

I agree, with technology becoming so simple to use these days, it empowers people to do a lot more than they were able to do in the 80s. On the other hand, I feel that as the cost of creating a company decreases, and as more younger people learn about entrepreneurship, more of them are getting interested in creating stuff at an early age.
