I can't agree. I turn 50 this year and it's easier than ever to get a new gig. If anything I've noticed a bias in my favor where I would be viewed as a stabilizing force on the team.

This. I'm in my late 30's and have routinely beat out younger people with stronger tech skills simply because I have domain knowledge and experience in the industry, in a addition to technical skills.

This will be true until it isn't. I was surprised at how quickly the tide turned. Godspeed.
