I am 35, developer (actively coding) and feel like i am still in my twenties. And I only now (like a year ago) started to consider to start a business. Is there something wrong with me? But it's true, sometimes I wish i was 22 again.

I completely disagree with her and I am tired of hearing this same complaining all the time. I am a woman, I am a software engineer and I've never experienced any sort of special treatment or being looked down upon or what have you. As I re

Since i've handed in my resignation letter it is very hard to actually do any work at all. I spend almost all my time at work reading HN and other similar sites. I do feel very bad for this but can't help it.

But maybe programming is not your real passion? I am in a similar situation right now yet again. I saw that after a year (two years max) I get bored with my job and couldn't care less and then I start looking around, change jobs and the ci

When I feel as you describe above I know it is time for a change (new job). The thing that bugs me though is that you say that you are happy with your current job - but maybe you are just lying to yourself (without realising it) because yo
