Reading papers isn't the same as doing the job though.

I read mostly technical content related to software dev / general tech, but I rarely create software outside of work.

I don't see the same sharp divide as you.

Studying, practicing, and improving your skills are just as much "doing the job" as actually writing code. It's all an essential part of production in the end.
