A psychotherapist for 25 years.
Now retired and bored. currently helping a few of my old students with their masters dissertations.
I have indeed given up chasing anything period! Aching back, dodgy knee.
If I was younger and could follow another dream I would definitely choose to work as a developer.
I still dream but my mental agility does not provide much confidence.
I have always been a linux user. In my youth hacking all the local wifi for free internet when passwords were 6 digits or your postcode.
Currently an arch user with blackarch tools to keep me occupied.
