What if I'm kind of all of them? Eternal damnation?
I've always strived to write beautiful code - for things people find very useful - in ways that push boundaries for what people think is possible with the machines we use.
I have succeeded in balancing any two of the above, to terrible detriment of the third. Never been able to juggle the 3 at the same time and this bothers me a lot. The upside is this pushes me to learn a lot, downside is I'm never content with my craft.
I'd have loved to solve domain specific important problems with a domain specific language I craft with a LISP and have state of the art performance while doing so.
