> It just don't make no sense. Other fields reward grayhairs. You see some sixty-year-old painter or architect or carpenter, you think he's probably pretty good. You see some straight-out-of-college twenty-something in . . . any other field, you think, "I sure hope he knows what he's doing."
Well if the technology you're using has only existed for 3 years, 10 at most ... what's the point in hiring a grayhair? As far as you're concerned they have the same amount of experience as a fresh-ish grad, except they're more expensive.
Sure the underlying principles are all the same, but you don't know that if you're not technical yourself.
