Star programming is really for the young'uns. I used to be a good programmer, then wife, kids, nasty bosses, etc. It shreds your brain

What a crock of manure.

I was a good programmer when I was in my 20s and I'm still a good programmer in my late 50s. I doubt the author of the parent post was ever a competent programmer.

A good programmer is, among many other things, someone who never stops learning new ideas.
