I'm 39. I don't feel like my coding ability is declining, but my ability to give a shit when people keep reinventing the wheel and repeating past mistakes is declining extremely quickly.

It's not that I can't code, it's that work is just making me not want to code. I'd rather put time into playing fighting games while my fingers still work, if anything XD
