Brilliant, this question caused "Air on a G-String (fnarr fnarr)" to earworm. I'd just got rid of it, now you've brought it back...

Who? Me? Only when I am in a good mood and want to hear something soft and gentle :)

At least artificial intelligence already is superior to natural stupidity

Adequate sleep. Correct grammar and punctuation. Drivers who use their indicators. Trees. Hitting two successive right notes on my guitar. Watching the sea. Etc., etc., etc.

Ahh bliss. The most gentle music to code with :)

Happiness is a challenge and the belief that you have the ability to meet it.

I'm brazilian and english (well, human languages in general) aren't my best skill, so, sorry by my english. (if you want we can speak in C# or VB.Net =p)

You missed out the capital letter and the full stop, so yes I am. :(( I feel lousy if I don't have enough sleep. I feel good if I have adequate sleep. Why does that make me sad?

Alberto Bar Noy

So true about sleep. A white night with a kid screaming means a cranky dev with no safety fuses or pins in the morning. A good 6 hours makes a happy dev :)

Happiness is the greatest gift that I posses. It is an ocean tide or a sunset fading on a mountain side. It is a field of grain turning its face to the falling rain. A wise old man told me one time "when you go to measuring my success don't count my money, count my happiness."

But it is Bach - what better earworm could one have? Imagine Poker Face by Lady Gaga going through your mind, go on imagine that... ;) (p p p p poker face p p p p poker face...)

Blast you! I am listening to Power Metal and now you just inserted that crap in my mind... playing all along with the fine chords of Virgin Steele :^) :^) :^) :^)

Amen! Happines can come in the simplest of things.

I think that describes most developers regardless of their situation... :sigh:

Happiness is having others appreciate the work you do, like when the owner of the company smiles when you demonstrate your application. Having someone hear one of my songs and say that’s really cool and inspiring. When my daughter hugs me and says I love you Daddy, and when my Wife reaches over and takes my hand and gives it that gentle squeeze for no reason. Happiness is knowing when things go wrong I’ll get through it a better person as I always have.

All right! I confess[^]! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
