Graph from the state of JavaScript survey, the results showing less JavaScript developers as time goes on.


I'm taking the unusual stance to progress my home life and not so muchy career. I have never had a senior position although I know in my mind that I am exactly that, but today I say the state of JavaScript survey and this got me thinking, I'm 32 I'm in the prime of my career apparently, why do we Suddenly all drop off a cliff at 40?

Is it the lack of data skewing results or is there something more?
