re: #891 Obdicut

Obviously, this can go off the rails— vid. Tesla, who was obsessive but believed in a lot of non-real stuff— but a lot of the most competent people I’ve met share that trait, of liking the job qua job, rather than for what the job brings them.

And I think we need more of that, to celebrate that more, respect those people more.

Problem is that such people can be taken advantage of, and paid far less than others in the same profession, because after all “you’re doing the job because you love it! You’d do it even for free!”
