These are good tips, and burnout is a real concern. I thought taking regular breaks - going for a walk, for example - would help, but during the walk I will just think about coding. To take a REAL break, as noted in this post, I need to transport my mind somewhere else. Watching a movie, visiting with non-coding friends, playing with my dogs, or working on something physical, are some things that seem to help. Would love to hear from others.
I would like to argue a little. The choice of relaxation method still depends on the personal preferences of the person. My brother never liked walks. He positions himself as a homebody and work in IT was very appropriate in his case. So.. He does not like walks but he likes to watch sports broadcasts. He was simply given a link to 1 x bat. Now he not only watches but also takes an active part using sports forecasts.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
