I’m scrubs, I’m an addict. Spent my youth programming, going from language to language. I was learning and it led me to jobs and I’m grateful for that, but my memories of youth is me in a dark room in front of a big monitor and a buzzing light that never really worked right. I have almost no other memories of it. was it worth spending my youth so that I could be 15% more productive at some firm? Even now I come home, kiss my gf and then sit in front of the computer to chase the next big thing, mostly because when I come home I am to tired to do anything else than just programming. There was some research on HN where they found that programming (successful run/compilation) led to similar dopamine boosts as gambling. My neck, back and hands all hurt, but I do what I always do.
