In this case, I really don't think they're very different. I ended up in tech, but I didn't consider myself a techie at their age. I could do the stuff I mentioned, but pretty much everyone in my peer group could - and most of us did not end up going into tech. In some ways, they're more advanced (one of them used to play some tablet game that basically used programming concepts - though he's never touched real code or applied anything outside of roblox to my knowledge).
