Computers no are more advanced and more complicated but they are much better than they were 50 years ago. The internet is even on cellphones with 10 years ago it wasnt even like that.

Thanks to Ada and countless other computer programmers/software engineers we can enjoy the simplicity and ease of use with computers and even calculators. Engineers make an average of $90,000 a year, as of 2009. It will take you three to 4 years to make that working full time at a Stop N' Shop. which is realistically where most kids failing highschool will end up.
