Death of the Middle-Age Male Engineer

From Italian novelist Tammaso Pellizzari:

"For the first time, elderly people's knowledge, the thing that made them the most revered and listened-to social group, is now mostly considered stuff to be stored in the attic, and then throw away when moving out.  What an old man knows, the way he learnt, is an obstacle to future knowledge."

The cults of youth, tech and gender equality hit the middle-age male engineer with a triple whammy.
