Ask HN: Do people not have hobbies anymore?
Hey CM30, I feel you are using too much internet.<p>I started writing tweets with Ruby tips and engaging with people for sometime and I've noticed most people tend to find a way to monetize their activity. I only do it for the pleasure of learning with the community. I don't care about writing ebooks or making people pay for things they don't need.<p>But I can definitely conclude that on the internet, most people are looking to make  big bucks. But have you tried going climbing or doing outdoor activities? There is always plenty of amateurs that never dream of becoming a professional climber or anything like that.<p>Also depends on where you live, but I live in Europe and here you see people having hobbies and doing random stuff everywhere you go, people just drinking a coffee and staring at the sky.<p>It could be that this is what you need. Disconnect.
