I'm over 50 and coding in Node & Java, + related modern technologies. I am very happy where I am, reasonably well paid, and wouldn't want to move.
If circumstances change however, and I am forced to move for some reason, I would worry about landing something equivalent. I have already seen reluctance from recruiters about placing me.
I think I would probably move into contracting. I feel it's a more honest way of earning a living in the software dev world atm.
