Reasons for coding
I've been blogging a lot about "meaning of life" type stuff as it relates to coding (which IMO is sometimes more interesting than seeing someone's code). In the likeness of one of my heroes, Joe Scarborough, here's Rob's Real Deal:
King Solomon said "Whoever loves money never has enough; whoever loves wealth is not satisfied with his income." If you are coding a particular language just because you get paid more, maybe VBers aren't the ones making the"*BIG MISTAKE*". Why do I code? Because I genuinely love to solve problems, and it excites me to write code that works in new an imaginative ways. Success lies not in wealth, power, possessions, or achievement. It is a journey not a destination. You're focus should be using whatever language makes you the most productive, helps you grow in your potential as a programmer and as a person, and helps you benefit others. When those three things come, everything else will follow.I'm not tryin to be preachy, and if I am I apologize. Just passing along some wisdom that was recently passed to me and did me a lot of good.
