> he's an older programmer I don't think that has anything to do with age. Adaptation or Learning might be harder as you get old, yet you can find as much young developers that stick with things they know and refuse to learn or use new stuff. The whole "no framework" movement for instance in front-end development, "because frameworks are too complex". I doubt older developers prefer writing everything from scratch because framework X or Y requires reading the docs. Everybody has opinions on things, even younger developers write "rants" like that.
