"Coding" isn't "brain surgery" or "structural engineering". Notice how he had to go deep into the hardest parts of those skills to find something that was deadly and dangerous, but compared it to the most basic version on the other side?
Being a doctor is fun, and "making things" is easy. Coding is also fun and easy. Coding the OS for the space shuttle shouldn't be taken lightly.
But I'm betting that neurosurgeons really enjoy what they do (fun), and I'm betting that structural engineers do find lesser engineering to be "easy".
- merb 10y agoCoding is still fun. Especially the more complex work. What's not so funny is creating a CRUD app, since it's the same pattern over and over again. I like it to solve hard problems, especially if I get enough time for them.
- davidy123 10y agoWas the context you were creating the CRUD app in the same each time? I find I end up having a lot of influence in the circumstances.
