In a somewhat recent A16z podcast episode[0] the CEO of Twilio dropped that more than half of the developers they surveyed played a musical instrument and 3/4 or so “did some sort of artistic thing on the side”.

I feel like I’m unlucky since the vast majority of the devs I accidentally cross paths with IRL somehow do not have such interests.
