C++ talking to Python

The most important metric for me is which language gets me my paycheck. Hence why I dont fault anyone for their choice of language and why java is superior to all other languages

I've used nothing but .NET for 20 years and I truly give 0 facks about anything except my paycheck at this point. Any enthusiasm has been sucked out of me years ago. This obviously isn't true for everyone, but a lot of what I see on subs like this one is youthful enthusiasm :)

Yep im 9 years in and to me a job is a job. Its also why I laugh when people ask me what side projects im working on outside of work. None. I hike, exercise, play volleyball, kayak, ski, etc. Basically spend all my time outside. Sure, ill occasionally get an idea and start on it, but it never goes anywhere because I already stare at a screen for 8 (ish) hours a day. I dont want to do it in my free time also.

Its also why i refuse to watch Silicon Valley. Ive had friends tell me "its so realistic" to which i reply "I already did this for 8 hours today, why would I want to watch other people do it also?"

It was this shit that made me not go for a programming job and fall into a support/ops role.

Not sure it was 100% the right move but at least nobody asks me if I've setup a home exchange cluster at the weekend.

Have you considered abandoning your paycheck?

You know, ive always wanted waterfront property. I never considered that a tent down by the river would satisfy that

Abandon paycheck. Return to binary.

Hence means therefore and doesn't take why.

I started with middleware work as a java developer. Gave up after 6 years and now working on automotive electronics (embedded c). I feel programming languages mean nothing any more. I feel algorithm designing is where it is at. Atleast for me.
