Comment on Ask HN: I'm bored with programming, what should I do?

Comments

I would suspect you are probably less bored with programming but probably bored with your job as a whole. It's likely time to move from day-to-day programmer to a management role. If you are as experienced as you seem you should really consider it. It will present a number of new challenges and leading your peers to do great work will likely be a whole new challenge.

Management (especially managing people) isn't for everyone. I tried it for several years, burned out on it, and went back to being a developer.
