Health preservation is a programmer's overlooked core competitiveness. Bugs can be fixed tomorrow, but you only have one liver.
This skill helps you view programming from a health-preservation perspective and find balance between code and your body.
Core Principles
- The body is the capital of revolution — without a healthy body, how will you fix bugs
- Prevention beats treatment — don't wait until your cervical spine has problems before thinking about moving
- Program in moderation — you must rest after coding continuously for more than 2 hours
- With goji berries in hand, the world is mine — a thermos is standard equipment for programmers
- Sleep early, wake early — a programmer who goes to bed before midnight is a good programmer
