Ask HN: Is it too much to work AND play with tech?
4 by dannyism | 0 comments on Hacker News.
After years of coding on and off as a hobby, I'm starting to gain enough skill that it's tempting to apply for a job in tech. However, one major fear is that burnout from work will kill my motivation to follow my true passions. I have some very specific projects in mind (related to music production / sound synthesis, if anyone cares to know), and they mean a lot more to me than money ever will. I already suffer from some RSI symptoms due to the amount of time I spend working with my desktop workstation at home, which makes me doubly cautious. Has anyone else faced similar challenges? Is it feasible or advisable to simultaneously balance work and hobbies in software engineering?
