Ask HN: Are you happy that you switched from a sysadmin to a programming career?

I'm considering making the move from a fairly traditional sysadmin role, but am concerned that many entry level dev jobs may entail more stress, and less fun, compared to working with a variety of third party software on a higher level. The sysadmin niche seems less common these days, so I may also have little choice but to find other opportunities going forward. Was making the transition to a programming career hard for you? How has this decision affected your happiness and day-to-day life?
