A comment on Ask HN: What happens when programmer get old.
We look at the young kids and think "What chance have they got".
We've had decades to assimilate Basic (C64), Assembly (6502, 68000 and Z80), C, Pascal, Serial Comms, Linux, Windows, X, ASN.1, C++, STL, OO, Patterns, UTF-8, Java, Lisp, Ruby, CSS, SQL, HTML, XML , XSL, XPATH, JSON, Node.js, Punch Cards, Boost and all the other stuff I've forgotten.
And guess what, once you've been to about 20 interviews all the questions are the same. So you better hope you don't come up against us.
