The industry is still relatively young. Plenty of tech workers have retired but they weren’t web devs because the web wasn’t as prevalent yet. My dad was one! He was a project manager for giant mainframe stuff that doesn’t really exist these days.

Startups can easily lead to burnout. Tech itself doesn’t necessarily. I think I’d be quite happy spending my twilight working years at some kind of bigcorp saving up for retirement.

I've just migrated a mainframe to the cloud. Mainframe still exists for sure, plenty of work there :)
