No I am not addicted
I work as a software developer and in my free time I love to create my personal projects (I call it my hobby).

I do love reading the theory books about software development like (clean code) and I am pretty sure I will not read those kind of books on any other subject (ok maybe EM waves someday)

Obsession sounds like a negative word, I'd rather call it love and just like other addicts I'll say I can stop whenever I want but I never tried it and probably won't any time soon.

There is something special when you get a new idea and want to try it out. Its like you have the power to build stuff, convert your idea into something that works.
Often times you will find me lost trying something that has no relation to my work or any projects but just to see if I can do it, for example, recording audio and saving as wav file in specific encoding in python. Not sure why I did it, it was a new shiny idea to try.

Hi I am rishiraj and I am an addict.
