Thanks Manvik, for an excellent and insightful post. I'm in my 50th year as a working software architect and engineer and I still enjoy almost every minute of my work.

Looking back, it's hard to believe so many technologies and techniques have come and gone. The growth mindset is a key to staying on the crest of the wave and not being rolled under. It's been a great ride!
