I'm 38. I fell in love with programming when I was 11 or 12. Just hand transcribing BASIC code out of a book into a little Intel 386 laptop with a hard drive measured in Megabytes. The magic for me has never really stopped. Throughout my career I've attempted jumps into other roles like product and management, but I just keep coming back. I still play with new languages and libraries in my free time, building toy projects with no intention to "ship" them...just for fun. Like an artist might doodle in a sketchbook. I really, really hope I'm still doing this when I'm 50, and well beyond.
