I don't know if you lose much learning power or if you just lose interest. I've been through so many Java frameworks that I just can't see the value in learning another one. I also cannot muster the patience to wade through Oracle documentation anymore. But I've taken a liking to Rust, I've learnt a lot of maths and I've also read up on networking.

> "I don't know if you lose much learning power or if you just lose interest." Both. - As we accumulate knowledge while aging it becomes more and more difficult to learn new things. We are smarter and smarter though. (Most of us :) - Losing interest sooner is natural. For example by the time I read through the documentation of one service that deploys containers on AWS the information is already outdated and two other, newer AWS services released doing almost the same. When someone says: "we need to investigate this new AWS ..." I am already shutting my ears.
