Yep, I’m in this boat too.
I’ve given up trying to get that feeling back at work.
We were lucky for 20 years, now if we want to do it for craft it’s time to contribute to OpenBSD or something — with phish on, not for money.
- raddan 5mo agoDitto. I programmed for 30 years with Underworld on. Listening to the beginning of Juanita/Kiteless instantly drops me into flow state. And it no longer fits if I am using an agent. I appear to be almost the same age as the writer of the post; just a little older. And I got that grocery store job. So I am working on a personal OpenBSD-related project. I have no idea if it will ever see the light of day. It scratches an itch and I am having fun doing it, and I don’t use AI. It’s forcing me to read man pages carefully and OpenBSD source code (side note: the lack of comments in their code is almost a “fuck you”). I wonder if I should try out some Phish.
- cyberpunk 5mo agoEverything. Everything. Everything. :))
- raddan 5mo agoNot lager, lager, lager? ;)
- cmeiklejohn 5mo agoTo be fair, I often listen to Phish and Aphex Twin. Didn’t we all program to jungle in the 90s?
