My left arm is usually draped over my wife; the right arm is tucked under the pillow.

Get different/more pillows.
I'm fairly barrel chested and sleep on my side, used to sleep almost exclusively on the left because of heartburn and then one arm up under the pillow to prop it up as you described. Would wake up with that arm completely numb from time to time.
Started getting back and neck pain so I went in to see a chiropractor to snap everything back in place. Turned out that I had been sleeping like that for so long that my shoulders were slanted to one side and my hips to the other. Had to get all my suits and pants tailored to adjust for it.
After trying a bunch of different pillows and throwing them away, I finally spent about $150 on a modular pillow, is a goose down shell with a memory foam core. Probably about 6" thick to support my head. Also had to retrain myself to sleep with my arm at my side, crossed over and resting on the opposite waist.
Problem is that I go through one of those pillows every 6-8 months because I crush it between my shoulder and wall when I sleep.

I've done that; I've also gotten a torn rotator cuff on one shoulder. This is about a decade ago. I fixed that one by sleeping on the other side, with subsequent torn rotator cuff on the other shoulder. I've since learned to sleep with pillow propped up and arms to the side (elbow in front of nose). I've worked on my shoulders, and they have improved somewhat but I have trouble throwing a ball straight.
I'm retired. There's a nap for that...

Coming from the highway, I just had a BMW with the sign 'Microsoft Car Sharing' attempting to do something that resembles driving in front of my nose.
That reminded me of something I read here years ago:
Owning a BMW does not always make you a wanker, it just means you will become one!
Does that also apply to Microsoft Car Sharing? Do the cars require you to close all windows and restart all the time? Do they hijack you to their garage when they want to get updates? Do you need a Microsoft account to get in?
Edit: Microsoft macht mobil – Car Sharing-Angebot für Mitarbeiter – Blog Microsoft Deutschland[^]
Don't know wether they have an English version or not.

The Microsoft cars also send data to the mother-ship about your driving, and shut down for updates in the middle of your drive.
Thanks, but no thanks.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

What is the difference between a BMW and a Hedgehog? A Hedgehog has the pricks on the outside.

Of both we have no shortage here. Guess what they build at this place.[^] The pricks probably are bred somewhere nearby.

All that still sounds better than getting an update request from your creator

How could that happen with Microsoft's record of always delivering error free software?
There used to be cars that did not contain a single processor or microcontroller, you know.

I've recently embarked on learning Android development and figured it would more efficient to find a buddy to gather forces. So, I'm looking for someone already familiar with Java, OOP principles.

Look for open source projects (GitHub, etc.) and see if you can mentor with someone there?

SO out here in deepest darkest rural France, we have septic tanks, yes, that invention from the 12th century.
Every two years it needs emptying.
SO you dig back the soil to expose the cover, and lift the concrete lid on the very bowels of hell. The stench is quite overwhelming, the image something of the foulest nature you can not describe.
But a guy comes round in a big truck and sucks the thing empty.
Its got the be the shittiest job ever!
(Anyway, I always give the guy s big tip. Anyone prepared to come round my house and suck 2 years worth of my turds out of a hole in the ground is worth an inestimable amount of money.)
