The Joy of Discovery in Software Development

There’s a moment when you finally crack a problem that’s been bugging you for hours (or days). That little rush? It’s addictive.

The best days aren’t when everything works perfectly, but when you learn something you didn’t expect. If you’re not chasing that feeling, you’re probably missing the best part of the job.
