Does anyone else masturbate furiously when trying to learn programming?
This especially happens when I'm trying to learn a new framework, language, solve a hard problem etc.
It's brutal, is this a bad sign? I sometimes just grab my dick and hold it while trying to figure something out, but ultimately I have to fap it before I can continue.
Are you doing this at your workplace too? It sounds pretty fucked up that you can't learn without fapping. Maybe you should try nofap for a few week and see if it helps.
I do it at work every now and then too, I'm able to stealth fap because I have a large cubicle.
My boss thinks I'm a rock star programmer, meanwhile I have cum in my pants because the problem was hard to solve and I needed to ejaculate to figure it out.
Nathan Myers
Well, yes, but only because I masturbate all the time.
You might consider not having porn for your wallpaper/terminal background/wall posters/homescreen/browser theme.
Hudson Lee
cum in your bosses face
Grayson Lopez
I want to buttfuck you.
Am I gay?
Bentley Perez
Damn, i kind of do that too but never masturbate just touch it a bit and keep it out, a stroke from time to time
Colton Campbell
During the programming session?
Kevin Bell
maybe you should get a fidget cube instead? Or eat some adhd medicin.
Hudson Evans
You type with one hand?
Luis Lewis
Maybe it's because learning new things makes you anxious. You realize that there so much in the world that you don't know (and will never learn) that you feel like a brainlet so you use masturbation as a way to release your stress.
Hudson Scott
you have monkey brain.
Aaron Hall
OP here, there's too much shit in the world to learn it all so I agree with this.
And I literally hate the feeling I get when trying to learn new things. I worry about how long it will take to learn it, it's always an unknown.
How do I know how long it will take me to learn something?
James Brooks
And when the fuck are you able to say you truly have learned and understand something?
Whatever floats your boat mang, I'm not here to judge. You should stop doing it at work tho, show some consideration for your coworkers
Joshua Cooper
i dont jerk off WHILE programming but, i definitely do it during a break if im doing a project at home.
Liam Sanders
kek'd
do this OP
Tyler Parker
And post pics.
Leo Wright
You can't know how to long it will take you to learn something. Set small goals, try to learn one small thing at the time. In the context of programming, writing what you see is the best way to truly learn. Does the tutorial have a snippet of code? Read it, run it, edit it and then rerun it and compare the results. Don't worry user, we all need to learn new things all the time it's nothing to worry about.
Gavin Jones
I have to admit - this is probably the most interesting thread in Sup Forums in a long time.
Robert Nelson
I've found that sage time is good for everything, so it's not that unreasonable. As long as you have a decent amount of privacy, of course.
You're doing this because you associate masturbation with pressure.
You can take out two things from this: 1. Create a better habit of studying and associate it with joy and curiosity. Take your time to make a nice studying room and session. 2. Stop masturbating when you're bored or when you're feeling pressured, or just to "let off steam". Stop watching porn altogether.
Ryder Lee
include me in screencap
Asher Nelson
Are you not worried about being caught at work? surely you're going to be sacked if you get caught.
Cooper Jones
I definitely play with my dick while I'm learning programming. Over the pants of course.
Blake Brown
Same, do you also wake yourself up sleep masturbating? I get really gay about it too. I will sometimes contort myself trying to suck myself off and wake up wondering wtf I'm doing.
I didn't do it until this point but I'll try it out and see if I improve.
Justin Anderson
you're not alone.
Jaxson Russell
That sounds exactly like sex magick! You are unlocking the mysteries of the universe through your bodily pleasures! It would be very wise for you to explore this practise further, beyond programming, to see what other aspects of life it can influence in your situation. Even more interesting would be for you to conjure sexual energies through a coitus not with yourself, but with a woman! Potentially having an even greater effect!
>One practice of sex magic is using the energy of sexual arousal or orgasm with visualization of a desired result. A premise posited by sex magicians is the concept that sexual energy is a potent force that can be harnessed to transcend one's normally perceived reality
You are not alone bro. I do the exact same thing. I can't learn if I don't get the horniness out of the way by fapping first. If I don't fap, it always stays behind my mind that I have the time to fap and why am I not doing it? Once fap is done by browsing sexy video or even some pictures, then I can concentrate on studying. Good to know others are similar too!
You're using masturbate on as a sedative and focus tool. This is pretty serious compulsive behavior and can be really harmful outside of the obvious social issues. Masturbation is a powerful combatant against anxiety and releases a ton of endorphins post orgasm, and during the act, it increases focus on objective conclusion. This is a natural impulse to stimulate concluding coitus and passing on the genes as much as possible, and is why you see increased objective conclusion seeking, an achievement focus, like people who hoard porn tabs or porn videos, who are constantly subconsciously creating collection objectives to fulfill. Usually they have some imaginary goal to reach before orgasming, an enabler, though most don't even realize it. This makes Masturbation a double stimulus, it provides results and shaves off the anxiety of stress of delivering results and is a sign of an overstressed mind, minor compulsive tendencies, and a bigger tendency to amplify pressure on yourself. You must acquire better ways to deal with anxiety and learn to not pressure yourself and you need to find a way to learn and study that doesn't trigger that frenzy. While you're getting results, you're frying yourself biochemically with immense hormonal doses and it'll have serious repercussions such as ED, premature ejaculation, ADD, anxiety, a complete inability to deliver without sedatives and the list goes on.
Nolan Martin
This is why GUIs will always be more popular than command line.
Liam Perez
Here's the trick: You worry too much. Your manager probably recognizes that you're a human being and that learning shit takes time.
Gabriel Jones
not him, i occasionally wake up fapping its weird kek
Easton Parker
No, but every time I try to use any form of game engine or web framework or do any web dev I get inconcievably mad. Same for android dev. Even when nothing goes wrong, I find myself ready to punch the monitor.
Jaxson Russell
Because webshit and gameshit are full of pajeet-tier retards, and it's impossible to find answers from someone who knows what they're doing, along with the fact that all of the frameworks, APIs, and DSLs are either designed by monkeys or abused in ways never thought possible
Jack Ortiz
No. I figured out pretty quickly that programming just isn't for me, so I've concentrated on jerking off manually.
Josiah Campbell
Yeah, basically. Don't forget the classic "enterprise quality software where the only documentation is the direct basic description of what an object does, but every object relies on dozens of other interactions and none of that is documented."
Dominic Ross
clearly you haven't met many such people then. The ones who are actually stuck up and suck the hardest, tend to be the ones who call people "the fucking worst". Literally no way of showing the world you're a sour cunt better than those 3 magic words.
Sebastian Bell
>it'll have serious repercussions such as... ADD, ... user, you can't just get ADD like that, it's a hereditary condition. The closest you could get, is screwing up your executive functioning by giving yourself a frontal lobe lobotomy, but even that wouldn't result in the same thing, obviously. At most, OP's possibly down-regulated his dopamine uptake/production, but that should be fixable by just going cold turkey for a while, regardless of how long he's been doing it.
Kevin Murphy
Because it requires critical thinking and the only way you can think is with your dick
I don't masturbate since I'm on antidepressants. No time lost on porn is the best thing ever.
Josiah Young
you masturbate as a coping mechanism. you've most likely trained your brain and will find it difficult to orgasm during sex. this will alienate you from women and a negative feedback loop will draw you more into masturbation.
Robert Butler
pls someone tell me this is bait
Ryan Ross
I jerk off a lot when I get stressed out and Im in front of my computer. It's a bad coping mechanism. When I'm trying to figure out a programming puzzle though, I can hold off a lot longer than if I'm stressed out by other stuff
i actually experience this sometimes, but for me it's not that often so I don't worry about it. I wouldn't worry about it unless it's really interfering with your life. It's likely some kind of thing where your brain wants you to take a break and give it a dopamine or other chemicals as a fix and to take a break. It's also probably a kind of escape mechanism your brain is using to avoid hard work.
Anthony Cooper
it's actually a "real" thing that edgy teens and politicians practice. Go ask about it.
Angel Green
Is there any gameshit not designed by retards? The least infuriating thing I've used so far is XNA, because 99% of the things you should just be able to do with code, you can just do with code.
Nicholas Morales
I don't do it furiously, but I know that if you are sexual aroused/stimulated you retain information better. So I take out my penis and slowly stroke while reading or thinking of a solution. I then code before I become too turgid and then repeat. Only problem is all the precum that develops and gets on my keyboard.
Angel Bailey
>I sometimes just grab my dick and hold it while trying to figure something out,
I do this all the time. I think it's a universally comforting thing for men.
Oliver Edwards
Do other people jerk off at work? I used to have a stealth wank in my cubicle all the time at the last place I worked at. I'd just scoot my chair under my desk, put my left hand like it's in my lap, then use two fingers to rub under my dickhead.
Sometimes I'd ball the tissue up and whip it into the guy's cubicle three down from mine who was a fucking prick if I knew he wasn't there. We actually had to have a meeting where management said they were gonna DNA test 'the person blowing their nose and leaving the tissues in people's cubicles'. I knew they were bullshitting but stopped doing it just in case.
I've never jerked off at work, cubes are too open.
Logan Lee
>not having porn for your wallpaper/terminal background/wall posters/homescreen/browser theme.
but then what else would i have?
Nathaniel Richardson
>And I literally hate the feeling I get when trying to learn new things. I worry about how long it will take to learn it, it's always an unknown. this is what makes it so hard for me to start.
>im too old >theyre probably teaching this to kids still in diapers >woe is me
John Smith
this actually explains alot. thanks user
Jack Nelson
are you saying i can replace jogging with masturbation...interesting...time to get /fit/
Zachary Thomas
I get that feeling about some topics and I'm only 20 It's beyond fucking autistic but I can't stop
Angel Diaz
If I can't fap to the beauty of your code than get that shit out of my face.
So yes OP I understand.
Joseph Butler
Post lewd code you fucks
Evan Sullivan
Its just an excuse to procrastinate. I masturbate before any work I need to do.
Asher Roberts
You're all fucking psychotic, get yourselves checked.
Camden Smith
Thank god, I thought I was the only one. I don't have to masturbate everytime. But if I'm alone, and coding, I have to be naked with hands on dick while thinking.
Makes me unironically think the 'crossdressing makes you a better programmer' meme might actually be real, since cross-dressing gets my rocks off.
def insert(obj, target): if target in self.parts.keys(): try: self.parts[target].insert(obj) except InsertionError: print('Y-you can\'t put that there...') except ValueError: print('It\'s too big user, please stop!') else: print('Am I not good enough for you, user? :(')
if __name__ == '__main__': qt = Female() dick = Dick(size=25)
No but I got sucked off once while programming a school project. It fucking ruled, it was like my brain was perfectly divided into two parts to enjoy getting head and solving problems at maximum efficiency. Plus I bust a fat nut. True story.
Elijah King
I don't masturbate furiously (anger isn't sexy), but the increased dopamine release and tying the problem solving with strong reward pathways may be an effective tool as long as you can control yourself in public.
Luke Jenkins
Yeah, but I basically touch my dick at all times when not in public, even in front of my gf she even teases me about it
Christian Rivera
>want to learn programming >can't focus in. >masturbate >cum >my mind is clean and i can pay attention now.
Lincoln Harris
When I had a real IT issue: I didn't know how to restart trackpad under linux which always goes high-wire when cum drops on it I got 3 day ban, yet this fucking thread.
>but with a woman This endeavor was doomed from the start.
Carter Scott
Sometimes I want to masturbate when I try to learn anything. I think it comes from my fear of realizing my stupidity and wanting to retreat to doing something "easy" and then giving up.
