I have found myself conflicted recently with this very question. My current role deals more with strategy and architecture and less hands-on code. When I took the job, I felt like I was sick of coding. Now I'm missing it a bit and wanting to go back.
I feel now that this is likely due to the bureaucracy present in my environment and the fact that I can design an architecture but getting it going is difficult and slow. These frustrations make me long for simply sitting down at a computer and typing code. I feel code gives you immediate feedback and that endorphin rush of getting something to work. Working at a higher level is more abstract and at times difficult to feel that you actually accomplished something.

Yes, I still love it. Coding tasks are like the kata of a very internal martial art; one that allows me to break bricks, drive, fly, build, and destroy using the distilled power of my mind. Seriously, d'you think I'd want to give that up?

I love to code... but my biggest issue now is that I have a severe stress related anxiety issue which leads to depression. If there is no pressure on me, I can code like crazy... but the slightest amount of pressure, leads to stress which triggers my anxiety issues.
And from what I can understand from my psychologist, high order anxiety leads to a flight or fight situation and your brain starts shutting down in preparation for either flight or fight... and as a result, I can concentrate or at times even think logically and I just stop working.
It's a pain in the arse... because I still love to code.

Love to code! I've managed (and tried at all costs) to avoid the "management" track of any sort, preferring to carve out a technical lead type of position that requires more, rather than les, code from me. And yeah, now approaching my 32nd anniversary in the profession.

Getting on a plane tomorrow morning - Friday the 13th, there's a full moon tonight and a nationwide weather warning.
I'd have a few beers in the morning, but I might end up driving at the other end!
Ah, I see you have the machine that goes ping. This is my favorite. You see we lease it back from the company we sold it to and that way it comes under the monthly current budget and not the capital account.

The best thing you can say about any flight you can walk off is that it was boring. Nothing happened.

Yet another TotD sailing along the Lounge; ugh, can't we put these at bay and/or will they ever converge into the perfect storm to be lost at sea?

Just hit a 10 years old bug with C# compiler. After making changes for hours and trusting that a successful compile is also running smoothly I ran into this bug when running tests on the application...
Now to spend some more hours to create a reasonable workaround. Can't believe that this kind of bug still exists in VS2015 after being reported back in 2007...
Added:
I need to try to build a simple test case to ensure that this really is a bug and not because of mistakes my code...

Not the only one: Designer Support when Control has abstract base class[^] was a problem with .NET 1.0 and is still unfixed. You still have to create an intermediate concrete class to derive your controls from.

Thanks for another great bug report, nikov!
We'd love to fix this, but we're unfortunately getting to the point where we have to make the tough cuts and we won't be able to get to this bug for this release.
