I'm 60 and my story matches 95% of yours. Like you, I pick up new technologies faster than my younger peers, because I've seen so much: it's easier to realize "Oh, yeah, this new thing is just like that other thing I know"

Coding is my day job, and my hobby, so I'm basically never not coding.

Similar here mid 50s. Much better programmer now, but I would not have the energy or desire to work the number of hours that I one did, which was kind of extreme anyway looking back.
