I can't say I am the oldest, but born 11/1954 and first started programming in 1977.
And still going strong with C#. .NET, Blazor, Xamarin.Forms, .NET Core, etc.

My age is now 77. I don't like the order of these digits so I simply add them
and tell everyone I'm 14. Started out with punched cards and Fortran. Primitive
but pretty secure.

Same here: I don't post but I do read responses. In fact, I think this is my first post ever.

July, 1940, but so far only the second oldest.
I started with Fortran before it needed a number and did some coding in FAP, then coded in various assembly languages for mainframes, minis and micros. Along the way I picked up bits of COBOL, PL/I, BASIC, CBASIC, ALGOL... I am still grateful for C.
For the past 15 years, I revel in Classic C++.

How about 1943? When I learned to program, we had to twist the bits with our bare hands.

Anything with a resolution of 684 x 11112 will do it - doesn't your lappie support that?

To me, it now does even less. And I'm happy to leave it at that.

My windows were supposed to be here already.
These are taking forever to install.
You'd think I ordered them from Microsoft.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.
