I'm 41 and doing great. I 'work' for an amazing organization (work is in quotes because I do exactly what I'd do if I was retired) and have a number of extremely interesting problems on my plate. A few caveats: 1.) I don't bash new frameworks (even if I know they're a bad idea) until I've built something non trivial with them. 2.) My education and experience are outside the norm for developers where I live. I have a business degree (with a marketing major) and have spent most of my life working for or founding startups. 3.) I love introducing people to each other. When you get older, you're usually much more connected than you imagine. 4.) I make fun of myself when it is deserved. 5.) I praise others when it is deserved. 6.) I stay current. Hell, I have built things with blockchains even though I didn't think it would be a good idea. Basically, I stay current and try to be a good member of a team.
