There's a certain serenity in it. Maybe its akin to making furniture in a way, working with you hands. Certainly at some point in the future writing C and raycasters may be closer to woodworking than to the status quo of software development.

Sadly raycasters and fiddling with bits is a difficult way to pay for food and rent/mortage. Slinging yaml and json pays better.

Maybe one day I can retire from professional programming and become a hobby programmer...

Oh, don't get me wrong, I still work a full time job. There are still some good challenges that gets me motivated on my day to day at work. I mentioned those projects as a hobby. I like computers and i think I'll ever will. They will not take away the joy of it for me
