I really should start doing this, https://xkcd.com/2200/
Heh. Puts me in mind of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76dmEkm1x7U&t=3820 > Its was intedend that the secret should remain buried in oblivion for thousands of years > if it has come before your eyes, oh unfortunate ones
I sometimes get round to side projects... and when I like it I put in quite a few hours... but something else has to give in that case.
Pretty good actually. I find the mental flip not to bad, since I also try to write kotlin code in a more functional way 🙂
I've been looking at swapping contexts like that when coding, I think it leads to better output as I'm thinking about how the code is used in different ways :)
Kotlin is a nice fit as it definitely encourages a more functional style of programming. Of course, no-where-near as functional as Clojure, but definitely a step up from Java.
@folcon <<Actually how many people here do find the time to do side projects?>> In terms of programming projects, not any more. Side projects are basically book writing and programme committees for conferences.
How is that @jasonbell? Do you prefer that? Or miss not doing coding side projects?
I do enough computer touching during work, I don't feel like doing any more afterwards 🙂
I maintain a bunch of Clojure libraries as side projects -- but mostly because we use them at work and I can also work on them sometimes during work hours. But I've done FOSS stuff as side projects for about 25 years...
