Love this post. I am also turning 45 next month, and find a bit annoying jobs ads looking for young people. because yes, mostly they mean cheap. and startups want people with no family and no life which are happy to work overtime for the cause, and just have a kicker and free beer in the evening.
I also laughed at being put to pasture about template literals because i had the same feeling - and i wrote a post about that afterwards dev.to/dvddpl/a-simple-thing-i-lea...
very good point about management career progression. i find myself at this crossroads, not yet sure if I want to give up coding, even though i find Engineering Director and CTO position very appealing..
What I love about** this job is that - it literally keeps you young. ** you are surrounded by younger people, you do cutting edge stuff, you are way more ahead (in technology matters) of any other people of your age, and you learn constantly new things - so that your brain stays sharp.
thanks for sharing these thoughts
