> Perhaps that's an age thing

Sorry for your loss.

It's a false sense of urgency thing. The kids just grow calloused to it, culminating in e.g. completely ignoring the door bell.

I had a friend that decided to essentially go off the grid around 2000-2005, he's my age (gen-z), I remember him showing me a website he was developing with javascript and IE.

Now he's asking me to help with the Google Play / Mac App stuff because it makes no sense to him. It isn't an age thing.

In an age of smartphones, nobody would think of ringing my doorbell without texting first. Deliveries come with notifications. An unexpected door ring at this point is probably someone I don't want to bother dealing with like a salesperson.
