The Nintendo Switch uses my open source code

It's not a competition, per se. It's the daily livelihood of 50 million people today and probably 100 million people in 10 years.

Not everyone wants to live an ascetic lifestyle or can afford to be a hobbyist, so expectations have changed.

Its less about being able to afford and more about people using everything to improve an imaginary success metric in life.

This is a problem with many hobbies in modern times where everything is a competition with others and less about enjoying it.

That's assuming that before everything was not a competition. It was, and it was often violent.

Programming just became mainstream and it more accurately represents society as a whole.
