Me to mate. I think its silicon valley thing.

I am 48 and having a blast in my career now, I am getting my hands on all sorts of interesting things to learn.

The only people who I have seen struggle with this are those who just go stale. I have friend who is a C++ programmer, and for 30 years all he has worked on is some logic controller software used in trains and energy systems. He is getting close to retirement, but if things go tits up due to COVIDs impact, he will very likely be unemployable. Me on the other hand. I get daily connect requests and job interests put my way on linked in.
