There are multiple types of development

I LOVE tinkering with silly bots or automations I’ve come up with to solve a problem I’m having for sure! I’d happily chuck away a weekend even if it’s just preliminary work that ends up scrapped. This is fun!

I don’t love everything dev I do for pay, that often comes more under the “well, the bills do need paying..” category

Not because it’s bad or unethical or whatever, don’t get me wrong, it’s just going to be basically the same tasks I did for the last site. Not as fun.
