Idk. As an engineer that already works 60 hours a week, the last thing I want to do with my remaining free time is spend more time in front of my computer on another project working for free. Not to mention, most engineers sign a lot of bullshit legal paperwork stipulating that their employer owns all the code they write, even in their free time, which makes it hard to get involved.
Comment on Why are there so many graybeards in FOSS?

I hope you figure out how to set boundaries. 60 hours of working time is 8 am to 8 pm 6 days per week. You should be aiming for 35 if you can.

I feel like by the time Trump and elin and the project 2025 gang have finished having their way with the government there won’t be any demand for COBOL or FORTRAN. It’ll all have been burned down to the ground.
