I feel much less sharp once I passed 30.
Hangovers also started to last days.
Learning new stuff that requires precision also seems harder - like syntax. Even though I feel like I'm much smarter when it comes to fuzzy processes like judging a good idea or programming language.
Dementia runs in my family... But I think I'm too young for that and it's just what happens when you're not 25 anymore.

- thebigspacefuck 4y agoThere’s nothing magic about the number 30, but a sedentary lifestyle, poor sleep, diet, and stress will all start to take their toll.

- therealdrag0 4y agoI wonder if it’s not a trick of perception tho. When you’re young things feel exciting and you have more time to soak them up, often being required by school to do so. When you’re old you get less excited and you have other things pulling at your attention and you are less susceptible to be goaded into long study hours. So Hour for hour and energy for energy has your ability to learn dropped? Or has your ability to get into the learning mode dropped? The outcome might be the same but worth reflecting on.
