In my past experience, Apple was full of graybeards who could code circles around younger devs. They’re the ones who knew how to build and maintain high quality software.
I’m not sure if it’s the same way now, but I was highly impressed with my former coworkers’ caliber.
Ageism isn’t an inevitability, it’s a choice.
