For the past 2 weeks my only dreams are about a code, string of random letters on computer screen. I cant remember any other dream.
While I kinda enjoy programming its emotionally draining when you even dream it. I feel fucking exhausted because of that.

Can't say I've ever dreamt about code specifically, though I have had dreams where I'm trying to solve a programming problem.
What are you coding these days?

Currently an app for Pharmacies in JavaScript +React/Redux and the latter is a pain in the ass, wasted so many time on doing things I would do pretty fast in vanilla JS, so I saw unchanged screen of code for long period of times and it was frustrating AF.
It was even more when I finally asked our senior what am I doing wrong. What I heard pissed me off:
"Nothing. It should work, but it doesn't, sometimes it happens, you are unlucky, rebuild it XXX way".
Great.

Okay, those dreams combined with fever dreams are absolutely the worst. 3 AM, I wake up, okay, this is fine, im not even sleepy anymire, but I dont have strength to do anything this night so lets close the eyes. The very instant I see a fucking code, not even being asleep.
What is worse, I was going to negotiate my salary with boss tomorrow and showing up sick is not gonna be a good sign. I rarely am ill, but the timing is always fucking perfect...

I haven't had to deal with much React—my work-life filled with maintaining a lot of legacy websites—but I've certainly had those nightmare situations of staring at an unchanging 'screen of code for long period(s) of time.' I've been working on the web for about twelve years at this point and those moments still happen, but they tend to be fewer and farther between*.
Good luck, dude.
* Outside of the time spent learning new technologies, that is.

Im generally fine with having this issue when im learning, but when I know i'm doing it the proper way, I even start to copy code from people and it still doesnt work, then I ask for help our best programmer and I hear "it should work but it doesnt" its frustrating AF.
At least now I know when to give up and try to rebuild things the other way.
Gonna learn some C# in my spare time to, need to finally make some progress in gamedev outside of making horror browser games.

After a month a half break I came back to running and boy, am I terrible again. 4,5km and Im fucking done. This summer overall sucked for my running, because I think my best was 7 km.
So I started to wonder, how much weather affects my running and how much lack of shit to do during it does.
My personal best was 18km during winter, when it was pretty fucking cold outside, but there was new generation of pokemon in pokemon Go released. I explored new parts of town, was freezing, but catching new pokes, had good music coming from earbuds and had to keep myself motivated or I would freeze. Still having one of the best memories of my life from that day.
Overall during winter I was very often doing 10km.
Then the warmer days came. I grew tired of my music. PokemonGo started to suck. I was doing 7km at best because I eihter got tired or just didnt feel like going more.
I guess I will find out soon enough, colder days are coming, but at the same time third gen of pokemon are supposed to be released soon, although I kinda stopped caring because of how developer started to fuck over people like me living rural life.

Pooanus season is coming to Sweden, so my running goes to nothing. 15 km yesterday but it sucked ass and poor 5:10 min/km donkey rate.

Well, I'm a fat fuck, so 5:20 is pretty fast for me, usually go with 5:40-6:00 when i do "longer" distances.
I at least hope to go back doing 10k comfortably during this winter, fuck the time though, could even be 1:10h for all i care.

Im reaching levels of retard impossible for human beings.
Wanted to play some guitar. Power up my RP250, put on the headphones, be ready to rock.
...
Only static. Okay, fuck. Hit it few times. Nothing. Percussion works, so its not power. Grab screwdriver. Dont know what im looking at, stitch the thing back together. Give it a try again. Nope.
Get sad, order new one from the internet.
Grab the guitar to put it back on the wall.
Wait
a
fucking
second
I didnt connect it to the effect.
Im done.
