Approaching 50 here, and no major issues dealing with project deliveries across Java, C#, JavaScript, TypeScript, C++, Transact SQL, PL/SQL, PowerShell, bash, ....among plenty of other stuff, naturally depending on project specific workloads.
Maybe it is some devs that can't fathom how to transport water buckets to the top with all those stairs.
Very commendable — I don't touch JS that I didn't write. Forget C++ altogether :D
I didn't mean my comment as a negative — in fact, I see all those attributes as essential so one doesn't produce junk at a fast rate just cause s/he can code for 20 hour straight and refactor endlessly. Of course I know devs older than me who are still in mass production mode and don't deliberate much. In fact, I often have to ask people to slow down and seek simpler and lazier solutions for their sake and mine further down the line.
