> I'm talking about the guys that live and breathe everything CS/SWE related. The guys that will continue to work on hobby projects at home after work, the guys that are extremely invested in every part of the tool-chain, and are passionate about all the stuff I found boring. Every trade/craft has these kind of folks. I think it comes from people who like to teach others or have to work closely with others. Things like deep toolchain configuration become table stakes on large or open projects.
