I've been a programmer my whole career. This sedentary occupation has turned me into an unhealthy skinny fat loser with bad skin. I have carpal tunnel in both wrists and my shoulders are sore all the time.

I met this old faggot at the gym who was clearly trying fuck me and he asked why I didn't do something more fun with my life, like become a porn star. Maybe the homo is right. Maybe I should have just lifted weights and fucked chicks every day.

Is having a career a meme?

This is why I was turned off by becoming a programmer. In a decades time my dad went from being a big muscular blue collar guy to a diabetic, pale, fat programmer. It improved our financial situation, but I'm pretty sure it destroyed the family.

You guys are retarded.
Your body adapts itself to the life you live.
So....


How hard is it to realise that you aren't getting enough exercise, and to change your routine to get up early and go running and lift some weights, then play sports on the weekend.
If you had been a tradesman you would be complaining about how you had completely fucked your back and had lost 2 fingers to a circular saw.

is web development a good way to getting used to/exposed to programming?

>> No.16454894

>>16454779
My honest opinion is no, it isnt. The reason I say that is because compared to something like straight up C/C++/Linux/Window dev, the web side of things is a mine field of chaos. So many different frameworks and bad examples.
Is it a good thing to learn? sure is. I just wouldnt start there.
Experiment with the more strictly typed languages first, and then work your way over to the web side of things. Javascript will fuck you good if you dont already have a good understanding of type systems.

programmer here. I also have wrist and hand pain so bad I often have to use speak recognition and hand make my own custom ergonomic keyboards. I also get back pain once or twice a year so bad I have to work laying down for a week (old herniated disc injury that gets inflamed from sitting all day). In the last few years I've been getting dry eye from staring at the screen all day. It used to be so bad I'd wake up in the middle of the night feeling like I had something stuck in my eye but really the outer layer of eye was peeling off (recurrent corneal abrasion). So now I use fancy eye drops that keep my eyes lubricated but also make my eyes feel like I've been crying. Like remember the feeling of getting in trouble as a kid and crying for hours and your eyes are fucked up for the whole day? My eyes feel like that all the time now. learn2code at your own peril.

my cousin is some programmer at an insurance company. been there for 6 or 7 years. it absolutely destroyed his soul. hes devolved into such a meek insecure socially inept idiot with absolutely zero assertiveness or personality aside from still talking about references from old movies and video games which we have discussed about for the past 10 years.

hes now the most brain dead pathetic faggot with no common sense or any ability to take care of himself or other responsbities. i can only image what his apartment looks like. he moved into one for the first time a few months ago. hes getting close to 40. no girlfriend. never had one. wont have a family. doubt he has friends. works with a bunch of bland middle class normalfags he cant stand. does nothing but play video games. hes back on world of warcraft now.

hes a real bitter asshole now too. funny since his brother is a total chad who plays guitar and speaks german and is buff as fuck and also has a lucrative job, clearly jealous. even bought a guitar since his brother taught himself how to play. he never touched it.

he talks down on himself a lot jokingly a lot and often says how no one likes him.

You need to find a new career or stop being a pussy. There's loads of fun to be had in IT/programming so either you didn't seek it, that fag at the gym doesn't know what he's talking about or both. aside from the carpal tunnel your health is easily maintainable by setting boundaries with your employer, and getting your ass up and going for walk every 2 or 3 hours

Ok look, self-taught programmer here too who just started his first “real (programming) job”. I tried freelancing on upwork for over a year, didn’t make much money but the most important thing I took away from it was the joy of working at my own pace, from my home office. Got a mechanical standing desk which I alternate between sitting+standing whenever I want; go for a couple walks throughout the day; just had my first kid so I play with him intermittently and help out my gf when she’s stressed out by him.

There is no better feeling than waking up and deciding, hm alright I wanna get this this and this done today, and have a natural incentive to get it done fast so I can feel accomplished and also do whatever I want afterwards. I’m a night owl so I often start the day doing errands & shit, then work in the evening and get into my flow really well.

THE PROBLEM IS
my current boss is iffy on remote work, even though he & I are the only 2 SWE’s at this non-tech company. So despite having a home office WAY better equipped than my shitty lightless cubicle, where sales guys are constantly shouting over each other all day all around me, I’m forced to drive a 1hr commute for fucking no reason. On the few days he has “let” me work from home, I’ve literally been 2-3x more productive and responsive and I think he even knows this (I think he’s *solely* scared of management not seeing his new hire enough in the office).

I love what I do but being forced to schlep over to the stale fucking office 40 hours a week, where I can try & work hard but it doesn’t matter because even if I get it done early I still have to sit there doing nothing till 5pm, FUCKING DESTROYS ME MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY

Here’s my faggy twitter thread I wrote today after suffering through the commute home. Please tell me if you agree/disagree and wtf the solution is for this retardation.
