in reply to Where do you turn for programming inspiration?

Well in my case Gold's Gym is about 2 minutes away from Border's and between the two of them I usually manage to re-inspire myself. Another block-breaker is to code the same project in a different language—either one I know, or not, doesn't make any difference. A variation on this is to dust off some un-finished project and at least attempt to make progress. I suppose the common thread is to dramatically alter your situation in some fashion where the degree of drama is somehow a function of how big the 'block' is. As I look at this, it occurs to me that I also use the same approach to solve problems in general—I suppose that means that coder's block is in fact a 'problem' (doh)!

For the bullet minded:

  • Endorphines
  • Books
  • Change
Take two, post again in the morning…
