Writing loosely typed methods in strongly typed languages makes me unreasonably happy. It reminds me of directly mapping binary 3d model files into in-memory structs back when I didn't know much about security and was just starting to program.

Today's requirement was once again "make the community version of this giant software package have a specific feature of the Enterprise version." I did it and did it well, but I also pointed out repeatedly that licenses would cost much less than they're paying me and it would get them a bunch of other desirable features. C'est la vie. My words are like drops of water in the ocean of their minds.
