English
A company's projects are skyscrapers, while your personal side projects are little cabins.
Engineers who only build skyscrapers will eventually burn out. The problems become repetitive, the development process suffocating, and the spark of creativity begins to fade. You no longer code because you want to build — you code because the business demands it.
Protect your personal projects. They are where your curiosity lives, where you experiment freely, and where you define yourself as a creator, not just an employee.
Companies will teach you how to write code that stands the test of time.But only your personal projects will keep your passion for coding alive.

公司的项目是摩天大楼,你的个人兴趣项目是小棚屋。
哪些只会建造摩天大楼的工程师,最终将精疲力竭。遇到的问题变得重复,开发过程变得令人窒息,创造力的火花开始熄灭。你开发的原因,不再是因为你想建造,而是因为商业要求。
你要保护好你的个人项目,那里是你的好奇心所在,是你进行实验的地方,也是你定义自己为创造者而非仅仅是雇员的地方。
公司会教会你怎么写经得起时间考验的代码,但只有你的个人项目,才能确保你始终保持对代码的热情。
