I met a man in his 60s in college that was going for a CS degree. He told me he is currently a Senior Assembly Language coder and was asked to update his skill set.

Yeah there's a bunch in my city, most of them have retired or work remotely, spend a lot of their free time hiking, and generally seem like they have incredibly comfy lives

god damn doing that for that long, how does he not have a decent grasp of higher level shit? Unless they wanna jump him right up to NN shit

i met an old COBOL programmer once

What made him god-like?
