I've been a professional C, Perl, PHP and Python developer.
I'm an ex-sysadmin from the late 20th century.
These days I do more Javascript and CSS and whatnot, and promote UX and accessibility.
I used to enjoy coding at home, and I still have a lot of ideas I get enthusiastic about, but I rarely write anything outside the office other than a quick hacky script to automate something anymore.
This is partly because the things I want to write aren't significantly different to existing projects, partly because I know from experience that it's just going to be for my own amusement rather than anyone else.
What I do a lot more of is hang out on help forums, SO, places like that. I spend more time updating wiki pages and doing the sort of zero-friction documentation you can help out with while the pasta's cooking.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
