I think we're using the word passion differently. I have certainly gone through periods of time when I have completley lost interest in programming - for a variety or reasons, possibly involving working too much. But, I'd say that in these circumstances I have lost my passion for programming (and was fortunate to get it back later). My point is more that there really are people who contribute to OSS and whatnot for no reason other than that they felt good doing so. I think this is a behavior to be encouraged and celebrated. I agree with the author's point that we shouldnt encourage extra suffering-inducing work for the sake of it, but disagree with his take that all acts of extra-curricular work cause suffering in those that do it. |
