Artist or developer? Both — you've got to eat AND dream
Music saved my life; programming saved me from starvation. A quick word about this double life people assume I lead.
“Artist or ” 🎤💻 — “Paul is a ” — “No, he's an ” — “No… but, oh, I do ”
Music saved my life. Literally. Without it, I'd have sunk into grief, like a boat with no engine lost at sea.
But let's be honest: it's programming that saved me from starvation. When my songs couldn't even cross my neighbourhood, my code was crossing borders.
Moral of the story: I write lines of code by day to eat, and lines of lyrics by night to feel alive. If I ever get rich, it'll be thanks to music… but for now, programming pays for the Internet I use to upload my tracks — or write this post.
So, developer or artist? The answer is simple: you've got to eat AND dream. 🚀
