Agreed. I just went through finding a new job, and I was a little worried about it, given everything I've heard about ageism in this industry. Far from that, I had loads of recruiters contacting me, and on the whole this job search was the easiest and fastest I've ever had. One interviewer commented on my age, which felt a little odd since it was something he brought up, and not part of the conversation. But, I don't feel like it hurt me, even in that situation. People were generally very cool. At my old job, a YC startup, I was the oldest person on staff. Older than the founders, the VPs, or any of the developers by at least a few years. But, I can also remember being the youngest person at my first job, and on balance, I think my age was more of a professional liability for me back then than it is now. It wasn't a huge issue in either scenario.
