For an extra few months of work, you could even grow your own tomatoes and herbs, and mine your own salt.

If you're on Android, you could also set up a work profile and run the VPN with a different connection, and have 3 there.

I really enjoyed this so much more than I expected to, and was so disappointed when I hit the point the that they had developed up to.

It's not a perfect game, has a few flaws I found, but the worldbuilding was somethign special. Excited for this.

You're not wrong, and I can't believe how spot on you are. I do enjoy dev, and it is something I do in my spare time, I did break the family computer by tinkering and Dad did tell me not to do it again, and I'm still chasing that excitement of the "Mr. T" calculator app I wrote in Haskell 15 years ago.

I think I just want my job to be just a job the days, instead of this pressure to keep growing, learning the latest tech and keeping up with changes, and then needing to have a portfolio or personal projects to show that I'm still capable.

Maybe I'm just feeling this way at the moment because I'm job searching and it's so disparaging to be asked what favourite blogs are or the link to my portfolio website or github, or my favourite new feature of language X, and I just think I'm not that person. I've tried reading the books in my spare time and setting up an AWS dev account, but I just don't care.

Sorry, I just think your post set something off in me about how weird it is that we make this expectation of ourselves only in this industry it seems, and I think the pressure might be a bit unproductive at times.

When you list it out like that, it seems kind of obvious.

Why do we devs have this weird need to do our jobs in our free time. We put this weird career specific cultural pressure for some reason.

Do other careers have this need to do work in your free time? You don't see brick layers itching to work on building a little house on the side, or lawyers just looking for a case to practice on.

Why is it just devs?

Gotcha. Definitely do not use something copyrighted. Oh, what a tragedy that would be for Reddit.
