Same age. Got started on a ZX-81 and a university mainframe.
I still enjoy writing code or shall we say solving problems via code. I still get excited about new things. I'm also a manager and I enjoy helping others. What I enjoy less is the politics.
Building things is fun, I don't think this goes away, it was always fun and is still fun.
- OnlyMortal 2y agoGood point. It’s the problem solving. Thing is I’ve solved so many problems, over the years at different companies, that there aren’t many new ones. Obviously, I can knock out the code quickly to the surprise of many. It’s just experience and I’m not a magician. Like yourself, I enjoy helping others, younger coders in my case, work through their problems. I guess that’s why I keep having to switch teams to pull them out of the quagmire they’ve gotten themselves into.
