I get what you mean but I believe the post describes a different issue and talks about side projects which are very different from paid gigs.<p>In paid gigs, you have hard or soft deadlines, commitments, etc. But sometimes you just want to code with no pressure, no deadlines, no managers, under total freedom and the money is not the first (and often not the second) priority.<p>That&#x27;s why paid gigs often is not the answer.
