At 40+ , especially if you have kids and other responsibilities, just going back t school is really, really hard. I may also say, impossible. I tried to learn German a few years ago. My brain does not work the same way, as when I was before 36. I read it in a report, and I wrote it here in HN many times in the last few weeks:
AI amplifies... It amplifies the success of the good professionals, and it amplifies the failure of the bad ones. Good professionals are needed so that AI is used the proper way. I think that the way we do our job will change, but there will also be place for developers, PMs, POs, Team leaders, etc. |

I'm not sure it's that bad if you do it full-time like any other student. Getting a degree should be doable even at 40+. I used to be a university lecturer in CS, and occasionally I got older students who did very well.
That being said, I think the issue is employability. You may get a degree, but is anyone getting to hire an older person with not experience?
