I've heard it said that there are two kinds of Software Engineers when it comes to Factorio.
There's one category who say "this is just like work, but I'm not getting paid to do it; why would I do this?"
Then there's the other who say "this is all the bits I enjoy of work, with a faster and more direct feedback loop and without all the admin/management/other-people bullshit; I want to do this for the rest of my life"
I am very much in the latter camp, but I can absolutely understand the former.
