Pretend that what you're doing matters.

I would say world peace, but that's had unlimited money and time into it and still failing, so I'll go for a sentient robot unicorn.

The fact that I can't use it without getting pissed off with it erroring 24/7.

Our school makes us use Microsoft Edge. Enough said.

For my school coursework, we have to create a search facility, now the problem is my class weren't taught this. So 3 sleepless nights and with basically no knowledge of Javascript, I create it. Now, I like my classmates so I don't want them to fail, so I distributed it to them with clear instructions and told my teacher that I'd done this. They asked for my help anytime it crashed but no-one said thanks, they just treated me like an easy route to a pass. I went onto my school private development forums and it turned out my teacher had created a tag for me called 'Unsung Hero' and made a UH appreciation thread that I could read but others could only type their own post. People in my class were praising me for what I'd done and how much I helped. I understand why I do development and why I'll never stop.

Documentation is your friend. I learned off of just documentation and experimentation and I feel I got a broader understanding of the language more than any tutorial could.

Let people help. Also read other people's code. Basically, other people are useful.

I was working on a game, and my monitor randomly blacked out and my computer stopped dead. My lights were still on so it wasn't a power cut. I look at my computer and I noticed it's completely covered in Diet Coke. So, I take it apart and cleaned them inside out, whilst I waited for any drying. I stole my dad's desktop and just put the hard drive in. Continued coding. So I guess the moral of the story, don't spill Coke on your PC.
