Don't hear me wrong, I should have been more specific, but the reluctance to learning is specific to tech and programming. I learn a lot of new things during my spare time. Even in the field of pure computer science there are a lot of interesting programming theories to learn.
After decades in the field, I feel like I'm mostly always doing the same thing. Grabbing data from here and there, making sure I rate limit and fail gracefully, serialize shit and deserialize a response, or vice-versa. Writing software is just plumbing and it's infuriating when people just keep changing the size and shape of the pipes just for the sake of it. That's why to me the actual product being built is more important than playing with tech just to play with tech.

- dudul 6y agoThat's funny, I've been thinking about getting into indoor/outdoor painting. I don't know if I'm really serious about it because it would probably divide my current salary by at least 4 or 5, but maybe we need to start a business lol
