Comment on Ask HN: Why is it harder to learn new things the older you get?

Comments

It isn't.

In my case, it's been much easier to learn the older i get. I have a vast amount of previous knowledge to draw from, better routines, motivation, and overall a stronger focus.

Maybe one size doesn't fit all?

Maybe it's easy to confuse priorities with capacity?

Maybe I wasn't as good at focusing as I could have been in my 20's, it would be hard to measure that.
