[...],
but because I can't NOT write software.
[...] "I can't NOT write
software" strikes a chord I wasn't aware of
till you said it.
The best painters are the ones who paint because they can't help
themselves. The best authors are the ones who can't not write. The
best musicians can't help playing - or composing, or whatever.
It seems to be common across widely disparate creative endeavours. I'm
not a bit surprised it manifests in programming too.
But, like you, I hadn't quite made the connection as clearly, nor
phrased it as elegantly....

If I can't help trying bizarre and crazy solutions to problems...what does
that make me? ;)
