Summary: The author, a retired programmer who worked for Apple for 26 years, reflects on his return to programming after retirement. Initially relieved to be done with programming, he started a small project to learn Python and play with e-ink displays. He eventually found himself back to full-time programming, reminiscent of his sleepless days writing shareware games for the Macintosh 35 years ago. He is now exclusively programming, leaving other hobbies behind, and has a desire to revisit and rewrite some of the shareware games he wrote over three decades ago. The author reflects on the passion for programming that he and his fellow programmers had in the past and wonders if younger engineers still have that same passion.
