I think I'm finding that I love these corners of computing that are about engaging with the real world and human systems, with all their history and traditions and exceptions. Where every broad statement comes with at least one asterisk, and that asterisk could be an entire master's thesis by itself (and probably was!). In a time where venture capital is busy trying to make humanity more computable, projects like Unicode and OpenStreetMap try to teach computers about humanity. It's beautiful.
