My passion for software development returned when I stopped doing it for money for 40 hours per week.

Now I just use it in support of a different task: helping immigrants settle in Germany. I build little widgets to explain things. I created a static site generator. I write linters for the content and git commit hooks.

But no more tickets, no more stand-ups, no more sprints. I write software like a retired chef bakes a pie: because it's nice.
