For me, it's plain old water. For the simple reason that if (when) I spill it all over my desk, I can just turn things off and nothing gets permenantly damaged or stained.

On the clock  : start with a white chocolate mocha, day ends productively.
Off the clock  : start with a six-pack of Coors Original, things get a little usufructory, dissatisfactory, and I begin to cuss at my computer.
Seriously, there must be a happy medium between caffiene and alcohol?

Peterchen is an experiment in chaos theory, so the less defined, clear and precise, the better.

That explains a lot! But is he a fractal capable of producing unique and beautiful things, or merely a clever space-filling function?

Actually, I always knew what I was coding (at least what I was *supposed to* code) until now, and have enough influence on what we do to make me happy (as long as it works out). So I don't know really, but if you have

Right on.
But, what happens when the company's vision is to just make money?
Screwed?

Mine would be to understand why Microsoft thinks that MSN IM 4.7 and MSN IM 5.0 need to coexist on the same machine.

That I can't answer... but they are different from the Messenger service, which can pop up annoying message boxes on your screen if spammers get your IP address..

I have found that company vision and good salaries are mutually exclusive.
I worked for IBM - they pretty much define "vision" though they have trouble following through. The pay sucked.
And I've worked for mid-sized completely visionless companies who have paid gobs for me to not give a sh*t.
It's a truly odd world.
