> What are the 1970’s & 1980’s Computing / IT skills “our grandkids won’t have”?

Tediously typing computer programs into their (or others') systems
from listings in printed magazines bought in and brought home from a
store (by which I mean the physical, brick-and-mortar kind), only to
spend anywhere from minutes to days figuring out why the program
doesn't do what the magazine says it will, if it even works at all.

This thread should probably be on COFF, not TUHS.
