Good engineers are curious and want to learn how to build new things and are also constantly trying to find new and interesting things they haven’t built yet. If you don’t feel passionate about trying out some new technology or language you’ve heard, or you aren’t obsessed with solving that problem or building that app you’ve thought of, you probably shouldn’t be a programmer.
