I turn 52 in a couple of months and I’ve only lasted this long from starting out as a hobbyist in 1986 by not being the old guy yelling at the clouds.
I got into “cloud” at 44, got my first job (and hopefully last) at BigTech at 46 and now I work in cloud consulting specializing in app dev leading projects at 51.
Every project I’ve done since late 2023 has involved integrating with LLMs and I usually have three terminal sessions up - one with Claude, one with Codex and one where I do command line stuff and testing.
I am motivated by the result, the design and on the system level.
