I'm wondering as well! Been a UK-based API-level tech author for 10 years and in product marketing (and sales, even) before that. I've programmed as a hobby for 25 years, and love technology so much I'd like to spend the next 10 doing it professionally. It doesn't even have to be a great job :-) But age goes against me, despite an enduring passion in tech and having learned several languages on my own dime.
