Just turned 50.
Unfortunately I already feel like a theme of 50-75 is "forgetting."
I remember very well the stuff I learned from 0-25 but damned if I remember last month.

- cmrdporcupine 2y agoPretty sure your potential future employers are not reading my self-deprecating humour on HN before considering your application.

Why reinforce that message with grassroots chatter that impressionable new startup founders and young engineers will see on HN? AFAIK, representatives of other discriminated-against groups aren't coming to HN to voice silly negative stereotypes directly related to workplace performance.
