What a valuable comment! I am 37 and I am not a programmer but I do read a lot about programming and related areas. Practically speaking, I don't see myself becoming a professional programmer but I still want to pursue programming just to whet my learning appetite. But what puts me off is this 'framework' dependent programming. It is just frustrating. Your knowledge of framework just doesn't stay with me. And I really don't learn anything fundamental.
