They are? When did that happen? For the last 15 years it's been 23 year old 'senior devs'

Some people have studied for 10 years when reaching 23.

Think it's actually a paygrade thing at some companies. Get a talented engineer (that yes, probably had open source projects already as a teen) and they kinda want more pay than an average engineer. Now they're a senior engineer.

Of course whether said engineer is actually worth said salary isn't immediately obvious and oftentimes you end up with young seniors that are better at selling themselves than they are at engineering.
