Some times, we like to think we're independent, loners, mavericks, that all we need to do our jobs is a computer and a challenging task but the truth is, not even the best of us can do it alone. Programming, like life, is a team sport and eventually, you've got to get off the bench and decide what team are you batting for ?
The thing about choosing teams in real life, it's nothing like it used to be in PE class. Being first pick can be terrifying and being chosen last... isn't the worst thing in the world.
So we watch from the sidelines, clinging to our isolation because we know as soon as we let go of the bench, someone comes along and changes the game completely.
we like to think we're fearless, eager to explore unknown lands and soak up new experiences but the fact is, we're always terrified. May be the terror is part of the attraction, like some people go to horror movies.
And at the end of the day, isn't that what you'd rather hear about ? if you got one drink and one friends and 45 minutes ? Smooth rides make for boring stories, "a little calamity" that's worth talking about.
