  Well it's true: too much coding can kill you Well it's true: too much coding can kill you, the real question is "what is the reason?" and the answer to that is; Chronic Stress.
  So why write about this; well it's personal. You see: it happened to me

  What's it, precious? "Chronic Stress" or "being killed by too much coding"?
