I am glad that he mentioned that he'll miss the flow state that he would enjoy while deeply focused in computer programming. That was also one of my worries. Gladly, I still have other ways to get there, and I hope that you'll find yours too.
Out of curiosity, what other ways do you have to reach flow state? I honestly struggle to name even one. And definitely not one that would pay the bills.
To name a few I have experienced: playing an instrument, sparring, meditation.
Paying the bills? I could have mentioned proving a theorem related to an algorithm at work ... but LLMs are also helping there now. The best I can come up with is: reading a book related to my current projects.
