Biggest Developer Frustrations Reported By You (Q&A)

As part of our weekly monthly newsletter, we send a survey out to all of our readers. A small percentage of our readership respond, but their answers are always telling.

One of the questions we ask is: What is your biggest frustration?

The top 5 answers are:

  1. Not having enough time
  2. Finding work as a developer
  3. Too many technologies to learn / fast-pace of technology
  4. Finding bugs
  5. Coming up with ideas

I address how I personally cope with all these frustrations in the following video. If you have any of your own personal tips or techniques, I’d love to hear them.
