> If you hate writing code but do it for your job, then you are going to really hate writing code in two different languages with their own syntax and paradigms.

I don't wish for this, but sometimes I wonder how different the industry would be today if dev salaries had remained in "respectable but nothing amazing" territory.

Maybe it's just nostalgia goggles, but when I was getting started ~35 years ago, I think it was rare to run into someone who hated writing code but did it for their job. There were other much more profitable jobs for people who were looking to be paid as well as possible for work they hated.
