Not to cast shade on you, by any means, but if you're an engineer (which I think is the implied everyone,) I'm surprised you don't!

I’m an engineer but I only write programs for money and not for myself

Yeah, I'm an engineer. I'd guess that neither I nor most of my coworkers do. It's much more common amongst lower-level engineers than, say, product engineers. Heck, I work full time in Python + Typescript and I don't even know Bash. I never even have things I want to script. Most of my time is spent making sense of code, not doing any sort of complicated repeatable task.

So, what are you engineering? Ci/cd pipelines with ready made tools?

Full stack stuff, more or less.
