That's the title of a case study my dad recently sent to me.

https://sloanreview.mit.edu/article/the-plight-of-the-graying-tech-worker/

I didn't wanna pay to read it but I can see how it is definitely real just by the title alone.

From excerpts I've seen here and there, a younger and more globally-centered talent pool renders old-heads damned near obsolete. My entire office is practically Asian (Indians) who handle almost all of the development efforts.

In the next couple of years, I've gotta create a few more streams of income that aren't solely based on me working for some corporation as an employee.

--- praying for peace, love, and power
