- Rochus 4y agoIf you don't understand the problem, you probably belong to a younger generation. In older years, you change jobs only when it's unavoidable. In informatics, it is already very difficult to find a job from the age of 45. So there must be important reasons. If he simply wanted to retire, he would hardly have mentioned the startup.
- digisign 4y agoWhile that affects most older workers, one group that it doesn't are famous, well-connected, high-achieving folks. It's not like Guido van Rossum is hurting for work, for example. So he is mostly likely well-off already, and has friends doing interesting stuff. No need to continue working at a boring job.
