  • Some people do overestimate how much of the software they’re actually using, and how far back some features go. I learned the little PS I know using a 7.0 license my father bought, I used it for years doing 2D graphics and web “design”, and still basically still have the same workflow with minor differences to avoid destructive changes.

    I live in the middle of corn fields and hour out of the largest city in the province. I work from home on most days, and take the train to the office downtown a couple of days a month. I’m a tech lead in insurance, somewhat in between management and programming.

    Really leaning into that “coder wants to become carpenter” stereotype I see ;) It was one of the things I wanted to do growing up, and is still a skill I’d love to develop. I just didn’t have room to do that kind of work until recently hehe…

    To be honest, these days I’m wary of turning fun things or hobbies into work. I’m pretty sure that if I ended up building furniture for other people like I have to write code, I’d start hating it too. Coding tends to pay much better anyway haha…
