Hell no, it's not too old. The Web is a meritocracy, that's what they always say. I actually started when I was 37. A few things you might want to keep in mind

Hell no, it's not too old. The Web is a meritocracy, that's what they always say. I actually started when I was 37.
A few things you might want to keep in mind:
You can learn just as much online these days as you can in school, for a fraction of the cost.
A CS degree can be found on Udemy for a reasonable price.
Your 10,000 hours starts now. Build things, be curious. Build things even if you think they're stupid. It's part of the learning process.
Having a website, or an app, and a GitHub repo will much farther to getting you hired than a degree. What will help you even more than those things are a good attitude, an open mind, a humble spirit, and an ability to learn.
Best of luck!
