>>1368653I feel the same way anon. I was a combination of lazy and scared so I stuck with what I thought would be a comfy office job writing Java web app code. Now I want to die. Surely there's a way for us to get out of the trap we've laid for ourselves?
I knew a guy back in uni working for a robotics company that used computer vision to harvest strawberries. I knew another who was a lidar engineer who mapped geographical data. Maybe you could explore something like that with your skills?
