> As a software developer, I envy writers, musicians, and filmmakers. Unlike software, when they create something, it is really done — forever. A recorded album can be just the same 20 years later, but software has to change. This is funny, a few lawyers I know, constantly complain they should have got into software.. Write once, sell many (pre-SaaS days..). They complain in their job, every day they have to go out and perform to continue to earn. Just funny how we ALL think the grass is greener on the other side (and tend to oversimplify).
