From the get off my lawn crowd (60) I don't mind being pushed out mostly because the work doesn't look that interesting at this point. I managed for 38 years with nothing in the way of languages (C, C++ when it became available, a whole bunch of assembly languages for exotic processors) by modern standards. Most of the heavy lifting in the workstation and high end embedded world was algorithmic.
All they are is dust in the wind.
- souprock 8y agoThat is great experience, particularly "a whole bunch of assembly languages for exotic processors". Here, a job listing for you: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19284153 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19284153 Within 10 years here I had encountered more than 10 different CPU architectures. I've lost count now, but it is probably at least a dozen. The same goes for OSes.
