   I've been developing software for well over 25 years now, but spend at least half the day staring at my monitor without having the slightest idea what I'm actually doing here.

     @fribbledom so nothing will change in the next few years. Thanks for the foresight. :)

     You can interpret this literally or question the philosophical meaning behind it, it remains true either way 😆

     @fribbledom in general, the times i'm absolutely certain what i'm doing, i'm wrong

     @fribbledom A large part of the job is what I classiify as "staring into the void". I used to feel guilty about it but I've come to realise it's all part of the process - my subconscious is working even if I'm outwardly not doing anything productive.
