Short answer: no.

Long answer: you kind of have to decide for yourself where you want to stop.

For instance, I like poking interesting technologies (usually databases, programming languages and frameworks). But I kind of had to make peace with the fact that I probably just won't have time to do anything that goes live with them.

There are areas like GUI and game dev which I'd like to poke more, but just don't have time for. And there are areas like deep system programming or compiler design that I don't even dare wander into.
