> The question we should be asking is why talent doesn't seem to increase with age as much as we'd like. This question has been answered many times before. People are re-solving the exact same problems with a new framework, platform, or language every two to five years, sometimes less. The "solved problems" never seem to stay solved. Alan Kay had a good point when he said the last 25 years (now 35 years) have been more about pop culture than actual engineering[1].
