Thanks, that's some good thoughts. I do already do that, contribute to FOSS, write fiction and I've taught some stuff to younger folk at work so it's not entirely wasted. If I can achive net zero on whatever cosmic scoreboard is in place, I figure that's okay.

Sounds like you're doing well then. I do the same with contributing to FOSS (and I maintain a couple FOSS projects) and I teach younger devs at work, and have a blog (technically two), so I'm in the same boat.
