What is the point of this blog post? 1) There's not a "side project bubble". What happens tomorrow if everyone's side projects are deleted from the internet? I don't think anything horrible would happen, if anyone noticed at all. What bad things would happen if 2x more people decide to start a new side project in 2020? Similarly, nothing. 2) Side projects are not "an expense the employer ends up paying." Quite the opposite. Employees with side projects are spending off the clock hours improving their skills and becoming a better developer. In most cases, this increases the employee's productivity and value to their day-job. 3) "And actually, we need to be honest. Not everyone is an entrepreneur." -- so what? Having a side project isn't always about "being an entrepreneur". The best side projects are the ones people work on for fun, because they want to learn a new technology, or because they simply want to create a product that solves a problem they themselves have. I'm struggling to understand why the author writes so passionately against people having fun working on projects outside of their day job.
