I'm just an extremely logic/math-oriented person. Analytically improving systems is my passion. It's a trait I can apply quite well to pretty much any aspect of my professional and personal life, but because it's only a part of the picture I can find a nice plateau before I go overboard.
Programming is basically pure, distilled analytical system improvement. If I started, I'd get caught in a recursive, branching spiral of logical structures to tinker with. There's too much to do, it's too powerful, it fits together too well, and it's too logical. It looks like heroin to me
