What's 'this'? The programming you've done?
Q. What programming have you done? What have you spent 20 years doing?
or you mean, all the programming all programmers have done?

Personally, I've been an amateur programmer for 35+ years, I've always loved it. I read about stuff, then write a program to do it, and experiment with my own ideas, from fractals to neural nets, anything.
I started a computer science degree once, so I could get programming work I guess. But I went to a programmer friend's place of work - he was working on the accounts software for some company - and it was all so awfully depressing I quit my course. Maybe most programmers' work is like that, I don't know.
