I admit the person I'm talking about is me. As much as I enjoy programming, I find it kind of like a chore to look at the screen for long periods of time. My eyes become unable to focus properly after sometime. As I'm a student, I do not have as much code to write as a professional programmer does, and sometimes I just write my code on paper and mull over/edit it for sometime before transferring it to the computer.
Before I quit gaming, the allure of games seem to override the feeling of looking at the screen being a chore. Other activities like foruming seem to have the same effect as games, but reading ebooks on screen is a nono to me. Does this mean that I don't really like to code? I can get quite engrossed with coding sometimes.
I am using my laptop (15.4") by the way, and do not use eye drops as well.
In any case, I realised that many other non-IT jobs require one to use stare at the screen for the whole day too.
And yeah, this is a community wiki.
