I think the root cause is the complexity.
Split the problem into manageable chunks, then attack the chunks. Apply recursion as needed.
This is part of a more senior skillset, as some times a senior will be breaking up the problem and assigning the smaller pieces to other devs.
My therapist, provided I reach the breaking point at a convenient time when we have a session scheduled.
they will be playing the edgy music we listened to in grocery stores.
Green Day is muzak in the local dead mall.
Bought concert tickets for October. Total cost for tickets was $195.20. It’s not a local show (ie: the bands have recognition beyond our town), so we have to travel to the city - 4 hours plus a $75 ferry. Plus overnight stay and food in the city. And we need a sitter to watch the kids, overnight.
So we’re pushing $600-$700 for a concert. That’s a “once every few years” thing, when we’ve saved enough and the band is one we really want to see.
Local shows are rock cover bands on a Sunday evening, usually, but I work Monday at 6am.
Laser cutter control software is windows only, just haven’t had the time/energy to rip out the entire control system and rework it to be open source.

Bluetooth speakers for music in the kitchen, attached sound system for steaming TV, over-ear noise cancelling bluetooth headphones for desk work, over-ear bluetooth ear protection headphones for shop/yard work, earbuds for shopping/etc (fuck store muzak).
Learned the default account password and figured out which teachers had not changed their password from the default. Learned that all teachers had access to a share drive with all student records. Read through a lot of information.
Did not look at porn on school computers, because wtf?
At grad event, in front of elderly relatives, was called out for looking at porn on the school computers, other student was credited for breaking into all systems. More pissed about the latter.
Triple-check that our mortage is paid off in the event of my death, so that my wife and children will have a place to live after I (sole breadwinner) am gone.
