Thanks for the suggestion, but honestly, that sounds horrible for me right now; looking at the picture of all the people hunched over their desks in an open office. For some background, I've been doing this professionally for 28 years. I've been in the architect/team lead role building software, mostly Greenfield projects in the medical field since 2008. I've shouldered all the responsibility that entails; guiding devs, checking code, working with business directly, making deadlines, project planning, all that.

I plan on doing nothing computer related for the first few months. I need to get healthy again. Once I get healthy I'm gonna spend some time doing deep dives into the new hotness (probably AI), then look for another startup type company who won't shackle creativity and ambition with useless process (scrum).

Or maybe I'll just do some contract work here and there and be semi-retired.
