I agree with that 100%. I am a voracious reader, I love software engineering and productivity and fiction and Syfy and nonfiction and... You get the idea. I have a previous comment on this site about reading. That is actually what I look for, intellectual curiosity and a desire to continue learning and growing. I'll just quote myself: """ What I look for in a developer: READS BOOKS. ( Audio books count ) That's the only thing. I'm sorry, if you are not reading and studying to keep up, you are getting left behind. There are so many brilliant people writing amazing books on a huge array of subjects. If I could get every one of my developers to read ONE book on software design[0] a year, I would die happy and the entire industry would be 10 years ahead. They don't even have to be technical books. I just want to see intellectual curiosity and a commitment to self improvement. - 0: In the vein of Clean Architecture, The Pragmatic Programmer, The Mythical Man Month, Designing Data-Intensive Applications, The Google SRE book, etc """
