I'm seconding this reading and I'd like to remind everyone that for many here, programming is still an intellectually stimulating experience first and a job second, if at all. Not all code - especially not the interesting one - is made at work. I suppose GP meant "work-life balance", but for some of us, code is more part of "life" than of "work". |

I work from home and so get to spend time with my kids and have a pretty chill time, but everything I do, is calculated towards solving that next problem.
E.g.when I'm stuck on a problem, I go play with my kids to rest and passively process it.
To me, this is a pretty chill life. This is what a "life" means to me.
Traditionally, people's careers have always been their lives. Blacksmiths, farmers etc, why can't it be now?
