If you think about computer programming, it's as antisocial as it gets.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm not antisocial. I like people.
Technology, we find, amplifies behaviours. If you want to be anti-social, technology allows you to be. And vice versa.
Even though I had the talent, programming just didn't feel right. I never considered it very seriously. Some people get gratification from bending a machine to their will. I didn't.
Computer programming is pretty much guaranteed income. I'm good at it, and I like it.
A lot of people who work on open-source software don't mind making money elsewhere. They aren't anticommercial.
Problem-solving, inventing, hacking and coding is more of an adrenaline rush of endorphins rather than a feeling.
I always considered programming as being like modern-day wizardry. You could think of things in your mind and then make them happen.
Most good programmers do programming not because they expect to get paid or get adulation by the public, but because it is fun to program.
I'm antisocial - there's no question about it.
I'm no more or less antisocial than the next person.
