> I'm 50 and still programming. Programming is all I know how to do. If that was taken away from me, I would just rot to death. Interesting statement. Someone recently told me the biggest problem with US Presidential Candidate Yang's Universal Basic Income plan is that people who have had a successful career in one field their whole life often do not want to learn a new career even if you help them financially while they transition. For reference, the discussion was about winning an election more than solving a problem. It's very interesting to hear the above statement from someone in tech vs a different industry. Reminds me how similar people across all industries are when often some of us tend to feel unique for some silly reason.
