Explain this to me... When I was a green developer, I used to go through this "thing": developing got me bored. It made me sleepy. I wanted to get up and go do something else instead of cracking my head trying to solve whatever it was that was bothering me.

Yeah, I still get it periodically. It's seems to be directly proportinal to my understanding of the problem and inversely proportinal to the weather.

I feel compelled to point out that I can, indeed, spell proportional... why is that?

Because, _, you desire our respect. And even if we don't know who we are, we can still mock you :-)
Scot
Oh the irony... "even if we don't know who you are"...
Scot
It's not only programming. I learned a foreign language while in a foreign country, by practicing it as often as I could, and the mental effort of retraining my brain to think in that language made me physically exhausted.

I think it's that learning burns a lot of calories, which would make one sleepy. Perhaps creating new neural pathways makes old ones weaker, so you get fuzzy? I've had the same thing happen.
Aaron F Stanton
Just the opposite. Now I get bored, never used to.
Ehm... perhaps this is obvious to some but what is a 'green' developer?
Matt
green is a term used to describe something/one that is not quite ready for the big time.
Tapiwa
Oh ok.
Matt
We actually paint all the new monkeys green. After a while the paint fades and we assume they now know something... takes about a year.

Learning Ada had that effect for me. See:

Maybe it is just me, but I'm the opposite way round. I used to be young and enthusiastic, now I'm old and apathetic.
