I find that getting up and walking around every time I see something stupid in code works, unfortunately my knees are starting to hurt and my shoes wear out quite frequently.

My experience has been that money is not a factor when buying chairs - sometimes the cheapest chairs have been the best, for home I use a piano stool when coding - at work a firm back support, that can be angled and raised/lowered, with arm rests are perhaps the most important features for me.
Outside of that a brisk 20 minute walk midday, as well as standing up and moving very hour, makes a huge difference for me.

We have chairs from Haworth[^]. It is company standard, so not much to be influenced here, but they are good.

Good chairs are usually very expensive, and thus, I don't get to use good chairs. I have a decent $99 (on sale) black pivot chair with some lumbar support from Office Depot. Got it about 3 year's ago, and it is doing fine.
I work from my home office, so no one gets to steal it....well, except for my cat. He steals it from time to time.

I have used a lot of chairs in my life being gast in other companies where I had to program the machines... and I found the Haworth Zody to be the most comfortable I have used until now
I have always thought on buying it, but the price was kind of stopping me (almost 1000€), but I am getting 40 soon, so I have decided... screw the price, quality and comfortability is worth it.
But to be honest... I didn't know about some of the ones being named here (e.g. the X-Chair, which I have to say looks interesting too), so thanks for raising the topic, a bit more information is always welcome

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Surely, if they drop it on the desk it'll taste shippy. Even worse should it happen on the poop-deck. That sail I'll say on the matter.

but in fairness I can think of one good thing about 2019 release: 2017 should become more stable.
no, not so much fixing the problems it has (many inherited from prev versions),
but no more introduction of new crap/bloat a lot of which really wasn't that useful bugs

Just written some code which needed converting an array to a string and back, and was like WTF.
to split a string into an array
var joined_str = String.Join(",", my_array);
cool.
To split a string into array:
var my_array = joined_str.Split(',');
Split only really wants a char, and Join only wants a string.
Why can't this two things not get along.
Maybe just me and some outof date c#.net
