I'm curious when I read these articles: does this also mean making a career switch, or maybe attempting to start a career, in programming post 30 (with or without a degree) is incredibly improbable? Does that ring true to people here?
As one of those people, I really hope not. But then I wasn't planning on touching SV with a ten foot pole anyway. I suspect outside the bubble where the culture demands and obsesses over youth, it doesn't matter as much.
