Is there anyone else who experiences age-based discrimination at work? I'm in my mid-20s, and have been working with seniors who think I'm still too junior to understand complex tasks. I definitely have the expertise, but I can't seem to change their perception. How can I convince others that my skill level is more important than my age?

How are your daily standups run? Yeah, some people throw in blockers here and there but it’s really just people talking about how productive they were the day before by listing their accomplishments. It’s not the time or place for that. I think stand ups should just be revised to “is there anything stopping you from during your work that the entire team needs to know”?

Is anyone else nervous about getting pushed out of tech as you age? I love software engineering and can’t imagine doing anything else, but I worry the industry won't love me back in ten or fifteen years. Is this a realistic fear, or is it just standard mid-career anxiety?

I feel like I am missing out on learning opportunities because my teammate rewrites my code instead of reviewing it. If this is something you've experienced, how did you handle it?

Anyone else in their 40s facing assumptions about their skills in interviews? I keep getting asked if I'm "comfortable with modern tools," which feels like a polite way of questioning my age. Is it even appropriate for them to be asking?
