Takes like this are truly crazy to me. Why did you go into coding if you didn't enjoy the process? Every piece of advice I was given in life always traced back to one:

Whatever you do, enjoy the process not the outcome.

Yet here we are with tons of coders now admitting they never liked coding to begin with. Insanity.

Coding was the fun part to me. It was sitting down with a nice coffee and some music, and tackling hard problems. Writing by hand the lines of code that came together to produce something magical. That process of typing on a nice keyboard, and seeing a solution take shape, is what this job was all about.
