     Verrry interesting: https://blog.codinghorror.com/skill-disparities-in-programming/
     tl;dr: There's zero correlation between programming experience and skill. Rather, there's those who actually like programming (to include in their spare time) and those doing it for the paycheck. Of course theoretically both groups will improve with experience, but the "real" programmers will always be better than the "fake" programmers

     @lelouchebag the couple of best programmers I knew pretty much only did it because it was a comfortable well paying job. I don't know if this is the norm though.

     This melds very well with my previous statement that degrees are worthless. If/when I get put in charge of hiring I'm doing it based on their git repos and making sure they're decently cool to work with

     @Moon @lelouchebag I literally do it because I don't mind to be doing it until past midnight - or for longer than other people would enjoy it for in general. I also program for fun, but rarely get done, as I tend to overstudy things I come across randomly.

     @mar77i @lelouchebag I think I like making things more than the art of programming itself. like, I don't program just to feel good, I have some idea in my head and I want to see it exist and programming software gets me there. I don't know if this distinction makes sense.
