Did you miss this part?

   But he was doing this for education, not for work.
That's why he should spend 6 hours on it, and not give up and run to the gym. That's like saying "I shouldn't spend an hour at the gym this week, lifting weights is hard and I want to watch TV. I'll just get my forklift to lift the weights for me!"

With his experience, I seriously doubt that he is trying to compete in the job market based on his coding ability. At his (and my) experience level he is more than likely going to get his next job based on a higher level of “scope” and “impact” (yes I’m using BigTech promo docs BS).
