I must be getting old.

Neither the prospect of spending time in the "metaverse" for "social interactions" nor a language design that requires you to keep in your head not just simple bindings to names but sequences of values, is just not very appealing.

What are younger folks thinking how they will be interacting with the metaverse? Less clunky VR glasses you can wear for more than an hour?



The metaverse is already a failure. So no it is not because you are getting old. Most people don’t want to strap a bulky helmet on their head to work or play. Maybe one day, if you just have to wear comfortable light weight glasses, this might change. But until then it will be a niche thing.
