Spend your days writing C++ code for image analysis does a pretty good job of keeping one’s noodle limber.

I’m starting day trading again
I hope it helps
Diet Sun drop at 120mg caffeine helps too
I wake up with two ice cold slammed and a Copenhagen long cut dip and I’m good to go
My rib says I’m funny early before I cloud up

C++ is still a thing? I took that in college circa 2002-ish. I figured it was obsolete by now. I've also had fortran, Basic and Visual Basic.

BTW, learning to play an instrument is also reputed to keep your mind active. As are crossword puzzles, Bible study (w/memorization), etc.

If you want to write something challenging, write Assembler Code. /S.../S

I'm just playing!! Seriously, all programming languages require considerable knowledge and expertise. My COBOL, RPG, VB and yes, some Assembler days are far behind me, but it was always satisfying to write code that you could see executed at the machine level.

If you write code for a living, I have a serious question for you. Do you see AI impacting jobs currently held by Programmers?

I keep my brain limber as a tax accountant at a large real estate company. The partnership returns are among the most complex returns I have ever prepared. My goal is to stay healthy and productive for several more years until I can retire at 75.
