Most programmers never get to experience the amazing feeling of being truly done with a software project. I used to work on video games in the 90s which would go into a box and onto a shelf. We did not have updates or patches. The starting, creating and finishing of a concrete and complete project is not available for most programmers today.

I'm a bit envious of authors in that respect. Once their work is complete and sent off into the world they can stop thinking about it and move on to the next thing.
