I'm wondering - do developers have similar hobbies outside of IT?

For example, my main hobbies are:
- Brewing Beer
- Distilling Spirits
- Drinking copius amounts of alcohol to numb the pain of being a developer
- Gardening / Horticulture
- Martial Arts

I watch sports.

Like a lot of sports.

As in my TV rarely leaves sports channels and I've got 2-5 sports apps on my phone at any given time.

I like to bike to the most random places. Music on, sun on your face. Lovely.

I pull out the lego... or my robots.
one could say I enjoy building things.

@C0D4 I've still got the big ass tub of Legos I had as a kid.

I need to bring them to my apartment lol

Lifting, music, playing the drums, vidya (obviously), and grilling. I also enjoy bourbon and whiskey more than i should, but hey thats all good.

@C0D4 I still got so much lego from my childhood, i always wished lego for birthday and christmas. I even remember i got my mom to buy me some in the airport close to "legoland". Best part of my childhood ever, even the folks i am going to my education with are still into lego, we even have a lego channel on our discord. I should def, getting back into lego.

@Frederick
I'm looking at getting the lego boost, and have the best of both worlds 😅

But I recommend pulling it out from time to time and enjoying the little things in life.

@C0D4 It was def, the best thing about growing up in denmark.

I am a foodie, my hobbie is eating stuff. I also like to travel on my scooty (ugh i wish we had a bike) and play cricket. Plus i like to wish staying fit😅

I watch lots of sitcoms!!

Cooking, games, reconfiguring my computers, plants, mythology, deciding the fate of the human race, solving difficult large-scale problems and planning companies to address them, etc.

Mostly just chasing children though.

I like punk music, learning natural languages and fishing.

I dislike all your hobbies,

Contributing to opensource projects is always fun.

@Rikan hobbies are things you enjoy doing and do on a regular basis.

Your son isnt a hobby. Playing with your son can be a hobby

@Codex404 Oh, sorry, let me fix it:
