I think there's a third reason, which is insecurity. "Why is it that you find coding so fun". "Why can you spend all your free time coding when I can't muster 20 minutes without getting bored". etc..
I have this sometimes. It feels like if only I loved to code all the time I'd be much better at my job and be more respected / better paid / higher titled etc..
Truth is it's ok to not love coding and not want to do it on the side. It's also ok to love to code and do it 24/7. We need to be empathetic with our own selves and our own passions/interests :)
- bawolff 4y agoI love to code, but pretty much only when i am unemployed. There is just only so much coding i can do in a day before becoming a crazy person. If it helps, i dont think my love of coding has really helped me at work. It just makes work seem more boring compared to the coding i would actually like to do, and makes work/life balance more challenging. :)
