No.(source: I'm 37)


But does life end at 38?


Still no.


Anecdotal: seems to continue even after turning 40.

I'm making plans to test out how far this goes, will try to report back.


Posting this from somewhere other than beyond the grave, so no.


Do startups go bust? Not unicorns.

Does life end at 35? Not for this specific accomplished scientist.


tldr: Nope, it's just getting going!


This is great. Thanks for sharing.


Life? Of course not. But maybe your dreams seem farther away or less realistic.

After 35 you've probably got a kid or two, a mortgage and all that comes with it. You definitely don't have as much potential time to put towards whatever. I don't care how much better you think you got at time management in response to increased demands on it, but you can't argue that you just have less of it day to day.


Life doesn't end until death occurs. Keep that in mind, kids.


fuuuuuck off. (age 39)
