Reading through Adam's book at home made me think about how much time I've spent reading / learning / thinking about programs outside the office. I read TDPL in my spare time. I checked out things in the D Cookbook in my spare time and applied them the next day, like loads of other things about programming and actual programs. I guess most people here have similar experiences. The issue is that most employers don't really appreciate this. Are we mad or just passionate?
It's one of those jobs you just can't leave behind you when you're out of the office.
I've longed being talented enough to control that like a hand-switch in the mind. It's what motivates me to keep learning outside the job. A very vicious circle that fuels me daily.
