I can't understand why you do not use Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS. What is a reason to use non-LTS Ubuntu release for programming or other non-hobby tasks?

IMHO below.
In present time many problems come from GNOME fast destruction and simpility/stupidity behavior.
GNOME reduces its functionality very fast, and this changes are not tested for all regressions and bugs, this changes are not discussed with gnome-users.
So many problems are common for all distros - i.e. Ubuntu 13.10, OpenSuSe 12.3, Fedora 20, Mageia 4 and others will use the same buggy and untested GNOME 3.x. As the most conservative solution we can use CentOS 6.5 (with GNOME 2.28 !! ) or Gentoo (with GNOME 2.32), but this solution is not universal for all users.

So If you choose Ubuntu, I recommend to use Ubuntu LTS on all PCs and laptops on which you do real work.
For example, in system requirements for Android SDK Google mark Lucid Lynx (10.04, previous LTS) as tested Linux development platform (see http://developer.android.com/develop/index.html).
