  • there is plenty open source software, that you can buy. There are many modes:

    • you buy the support (redhead)
    • you buy the long-term-support (ubuntu)
    • you pay for backports to old releases (keycloak iirc)
    • there is a open source version, and you can pay for enterprise features and hosting (gitlab)
    • there is an open source version, and you pay for customization (star office, iirc)

    and my personal favorit:

    • you pay a random developer to submit pullrequests for bugs that are relevant to you














  • Interesting how college ruined your love for programming

    it was probably the general pressure and depression.

    and work got it back

    the costumers and the colleague were nice people. I enjoyed solving actual real-life problems.

    Studying Computer Science constantly fed me with new interesting ideas, and I still had more time to play around with those ideas.

    after my first job, I went back to college (uni?) to get my masters. There I had lots of fun implementing some of the theoretical stuff.
