According the - not official/final - results of the weekly poll more than 50% of developers find programming more than 'rarely frustrating'...
So why to do it?
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Programming itself is not frustrating, just that what managers, clients, incompentent and zealous programmers apparently think it's all about.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."
If software development were a circus, we would all be the clowns.

It would have to be a programming language to make programming frustrating, ergo....

And quite true.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

The PHP people always bragged that they could do anything anyone could think of. When someone then mentioned something which an interpreter really can't do, then they usually retreated to calling it 'just a scripting language'. So I guess that any little interpreter that falls a little short is just a scripting language.

What? 
You don't get Development Groupies in Israel?
That's terrible - what are you doing the job for?

I visit Microsoft's monthly meetings (if I can), but a skip all the other invitations for 'Made in Jerusalem', 'Tea for two' and other groups - I was thinking it is a waste of time...Maybe I'm wrong

"Tea for two" is a well-known euphemism.

I think the official name is 'talkcafe', but I do not drink coffee...
Euphemism - for what? I didn't found nothing that justifies that smile...(found something about 'drinking a tea', that sounds me idiotic).

Nothing, like riding out after a long day of programming, seeing the peasants coming home from working on your fields and riding just fast enough that the groupies get some exercise but don't catch up until you return to your manor.

Because it beats beating our heads against a wall?

Aah, but the pleasure is not in the punishment (for me)... it is in the success. So no, I don't think the result indicates that we are masochists. It might indicate that a small percentage of the 50% is, but for that you would need a new survey to determine it.

I find it soothing when focusing and solving a problem. But there are also parts that can be frustrating. I program a lot on my free time but sadly I get interrupted a lot by my wife and kids and then it just gets frustrating.
Same when a project grows to large, where it involves tasks that are not directly related to programming. For example graphic design and similar.

I've never described anything I've cooked to anybody before—and I seldom cook—but tonight I prepared a seafood fettuccine and used way too much cream and white wine. I served myself a huge portion, considering my neglected, emaciated body; and I had a big glass of wine with it. Half an hour after finishing it I was lying on my grubby unvacuumed carpet quite drunk and almost comatose. I still feel lightheaded and stupefied. It's been a long time since I've posted here but I'm so lonely.

Please don't post again immediately if it doesn't appear - both copies of this went to moderation, and I had to let both of them through to avoid giving you a kicking as a spammer!
I've deleted the spare.
