Ask HN: How old are you?

Just trying to get a rough idea of age distribution here on HN

51

My recollection is that previous surveys (done as a thing you could vote in, without having to identify yourself by age) have suggested the site had a fairly large cohort of people in their 20s and 30s, with ages from early childhood to 80s. If I were any good at searching the site, I would post links to previous surveys.

Oh shit.

Probably realized he/she might be the oldest here. haha. I doubt though.

I'm 56, and I know that there are people here who are older than me.

31

You might want to do this as a poll.

How do I conduct a poll on HN?

There may be a karma threshold for doing polls, not sure.
