I wished I spent more time with friends. Early days I wanted to learn and make the next big thing, and spent a lot of my time after work reading up on design patterns, stacks, etc. Even launched a product, but it failed. Looking back, I saw a lot of my friends went on trips to Europe, Asia, Africa, and across America. They had a lot of fun and made memories. I have none of that, and less. Now that we're all reaching middle age, maybe I have more money, but I can tell you it's not worth it. And it's not like I can make up time and go on more trips now, we're all in a different life stage. Don't miss the boat being young, trying to be a 10x ninja hacker is worthless, especially with how the industry treats its minority workers.
