Often when you do things just for fun, you’re driven by the possibilities of what could be. That’s part of the fun. This is especially true of software, and there’s nothing wrong with it.

What there is something wrong with is criticizing others’ motivations because they seem outlandish to you. It’s fine and even healthy to be so ambitious. Not all of us want to sit around playing with legos assuming that’s the best a reasonable life has to offer.
