Great replies yeah. Personally: I'm mid-30s, yet-to-retire addicted to programming, been programming for ages with many highs/lows (aka from developing project with opencv/ai for DARPA to creating the worst flop in history of games which is maybe still tormenting people Steam, i'm not naming it lol it's beyond bad). These days as a hobby: Experimenting with AI, battery designs and propulsion (long story!). I'm based in europe so maybe my English isn't perfect and sounds gpt 3.5 generated, sorry if that's the case.
