Ageism is primarily against the YOUNG.
this is the 3rd time in the interview process where as soon as they found out my age the pay went down or I was magically no longer "qualified" enough.
Conveniently Age discrimination against the young isn't even against the law...

@basedbagel I've looked at how 40+ are legally protected, employers can't even try to scam them into signing a separation agreement, they are legally required to tell them they should see a lawyer. I thought "they've been around the block a few times", shouldn't they already know this?
In tech, preference for younger people is malicious: they want you to be less experienced and thus more scammable. Tech is very abusive toward engineers, it runs on unpaid overtime.
