News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Same age here. Mid-thirties career switch into tech. Landed my first tech job at 37 (consulting), first startup at 40 (data engineering) and just started a new startup at 41 (data engineering/devops). I'm probably the oldest at my company by a decade. I don't think I look particularly young, but maybe? I'm not saying age discrimination doesn't exist, just that I've been lucky / fortunate enough not to have experienced it.

I'm a former purchasing manager turned developer, I can tell you the p-card business is ripe for innovation. This is a great space to go after. Good luck!

Also a big fan of Quiver. Anything I have to google twice goes into quiver as a code snippet. Trying to get in the habit of doing bullet points about what I worked on each day.

I honestly thought Delphi went out of business years ago.
