I do this on transit during my commute, and in some (pointless) meetings. Lately it has produced some code I am very proud of.

Some computational physics courses in parts of Canada are still taught in Fortran90. I also worked in a lab (in 2005) which still used 5 1/4" floppy disks. The difference between these and NASA, of course, being choice.

It's a great start to something desperately needed in Hong Kong. Almost everything software related is outsourced to other countries, and those who do programming within Hong Kong are mostly foreigners. Since it is not currently taken seriously as a career, it is also difficult to make a living wage. (Although a living wage is difficult for most careers there)
