No it is purely ageing. I am very lucky to start from a high base, but I am still not as good today as I was 10 years ago.
I have leveraged my skill and experience so I earn far more today than I did 10 years ago, but being honest with myself I know I am past my productivity peak. I wish it was otherwise as there is nothing good about getting older.
- scarface74 8y agoI’m 45 and I can’t crank out code with the focus I had when I was younger. I also have a lot more on my plate - wife, kid, trying to stay healthy, etc. But, I definitely work smarter and have that breadth of knowledge to know how to leverage preexisting technology, use managed services and outsource the “undifferentiated heavy lifting” to outside vendors.

I am very lucky to start from a high base, but I am still not as good today as I was 10 years ago Well, I am better that I was 10 years ago, and I look around me and see experienced guys are vastly more productive, since the industry is cyclical and we have seen it all before.
