I'm a firm believer in "You can't do just one thing." I am a software architect / developer, a musician (classical and electronic), a tech.trance DJ, a pilot (private s.e.l.), and a writer. It keeps me busy and public with great benefits -- I can mix my disciplines into new patterns. Music influences my code harmonically! Code precision influences my airmanship. Writing improves my code readability and poetry brings elegance. Musical performance and social interaction seeds the lot, so "having a life" is a precursor to being a developer, especially an OOP one  Life is not a finite state machine, so why should I be?

Does not compute.
Life is a "in a right state" machine!

I enjoy programming, but I have one rule - No computer at home!
Both my wife and I have internet and email access at work, and if we really need to, we can send and receive emails using our mobile phones.
I've got lots of gadgets but no PC. We both sit in front of a PC for different jobs, The last thing we want to see if a !$&$ PC when we get home.

I got myself a laptop. Not sure if it's a curse of a blessing.

Yep, I can imagine! We keep wondering if we should buy a laptop, but keep resisting.

I have a life - I enjoy woodworking and woodturning in my spare time. I don't work more than I have to (8 hours, Mon..Fri). But I'd say I have little social life other than what my wife brings in. She has friends and I tag along.
I have less of a social life now, giving more time to my wife and two young children. When I was single I used to have a great social life and work longer hours.
Don't worry, nobody lives forever.

There are times I look back and long for the freedom and fun. But then I remember how lonely Christmas was on my own.
I'd say I'm much happier now. It's just that there are fewer highs and lows. My social life may be less interesting, but my "life" is far richer.
Children - a luxury item if ever there was one!

I think developers do, just like any other human
Do you think that they have?

i think a developers afterlife is something like a black screen with the text:
</life>
that you have to watch for eternity and can do sh*t about it.
