   Despite Spritely being founded upon technology I architected, since becoming Executive Director I almost never get to write code anymore. When I do get to write code these days it feels like it's the best thing in the universe

     Yes I knew this would probably happen when I took on the role

     Being the head of the org is fulfilling insofar as I'm able to steer a ship where INCREDIBLE things are happening all the time

     But on the other hand a lot of the time being an ED is a lot of boring administrative or strategic stuff that is incredibly hard to land, like you're a Roomba caught in the corner of the room bouncing from wall to wall

     As the CTO at my own commercial company, and Chairman at my non-profit, I can say I know how this feels all too well.

     Best of luck to you and your company though.

     OTOH maybe everyone else knows what they're doing and this is just me

     I dunno, it's impossible to tell with all the imposter syndrome
