Stemceling/coding is just an epic cope. Yes there are people who like designing things and they often use code as a means to an end, but nobody actually likes to code just for the sake of coding. It's why there are so few programmers and why coding is highly paid. It's not because it's super hard (it isn't. The difficulty of coding is heavily overrated), but because the vast majority finds it extremely boring. The hipster coder stereotype is merely a cope that nerds/incels made up in order to inflate their own self-esteem. Their coding skills are the only thing they have going for them (which they probably developed because their bad looks prevented them from having a social life) so it's their only real cope. Nobody actually legit likes being a coder.
