    I used the example of Neo choosing between the red pill and the blue pill in my causal inference class to explain the concept of the counterfactual. Got blank looks. Turns out, all students were born after the Matrix was released. https://twitter.com/umairjav/status/1054409608461201408 …

        Be very careful not to let them know you were born before the iPhone was released. THAT is old.

        When I was 18, I knew old movies because they aired them on TV. I didn’t choose my media. I watched whatever was airing. With streaming/games/social media, I doubt kids “just watch what’s on,” like I did. They have choice and 20 year old movies are probably not high on the list.

        No, he just wasn't speaking to a bunch of basement dwelling keyboard commandos. The reference is still very current in fringe circles.
