The mistake in this (and in similar articles) is conflating activity and purpose. Programming is an activity, not an end in itself. To love programming is to love solving challenging problems with a computer, not the act of typing code for 9 hours a day. That is why articles like these just end up being psychological mirrors - those who aren't being fulfilled in a programming job will always perk up at the idea of "bluer skies". Job unhappiness almost always has a root cause that has little to do with the activity of the job itself, and more with the job situation. |
