Lucky you!
I feel like my coding peak was at 35 and is slowly declining ever since.
I'm slowly getting better in dealing with people though.

When I was young, I was much better at reading or writing complex functions that worked correctly. As I get older, I'm much less able to, but I also wouldn't want to even if I could.
I don't think that's just sour grapes. I don't want to inflict complex code on my coworkers, either. And there's many times (when I'm tired, when I'm fixing an emergency bug, etc) that I'm not at 100% mental capacity and I value not having to work right at my brain's complexity limit.
16 year old me would probably not have believed that.
