Yeah that makes sense of course. You are definitely not the only one. Sounds like you know your limits!

In the end, and in my personal belief, we're all one big community and we have a chance to uplift each other (I know, I know, utopian fantasy much?). It should not be a competition, but a synergy. In my book, it's the effort that counts, not the hours.

yeah i'm programming a computer game rn and intend to make it open source once i have some substantial amount :)

actually, i think competitiveness is artificially instilled on us based on a thinking in races, i.e. "getting ahead". not like skin-color, just beating the other guy by being better than him and such. (i.e. like a race-car competition).

Agreed. Keeping the masses artificially competing with each other over the crumbs the upper 10% leaves us just distracts people from who they're really in competition with.
