Either your interest in coding starts at a young age or not at all

What am I looking at? It appears to be a collection of comments from StackOverflow back in 2008.<p>Nothing in there says &quot;Either your interest in coding starts at a young age or not at all&quot;. There is a plot of &quot;distribution of ages when starte programming&quot;, but that&#x27;s self-selected from the population of people who answer questions on Stack Overflow.<p>If so, a better interpretation (IMO) is &quot;Early Stack Overflow contributors started programming as teenagers.&quot;

This is 100% false. Can confirm.
