What are some of your recommendations for books, videos, podcasts, or any other media that inspire and spark more passion for programming and computer science in general? I’m interested in hearing how these resources have helped you grow as a programmer.

    I usually don’t consume much of that media, I’m more of an active person myself. So I enjoy some hobby projects and writing the occasional blog post every now and then.

    If you haven’t learned a language with a new paradigm in a while, give that a shot. For example, if you have never done Functional Programming, learn Elixir

    Since you didn’t specifically mention why you are looking to get more passion, I’d say don’t exhaust yourself with it. It’s fine if you are just in a phase of your career where work alone is enough. There might also be other parts of the field you could explore into, if you’re not feeling the programming part at the moment. Career paths aren’t linear :)
