Sometimes you are under pressure to get something out to the client "urgently" and then they sit on it.

Only regular people use threads. Others are too lazy. They don't want to spend more time. Nowadays Internet mostly filled with Likes & Re-tweets .... discussions are very less comparing to those two.

You've reinforced my point.
If they're that stupid and lazy, I don't want to hear from them.
Problem Solved!

But half of good programmers are lazy one who write less code(KISS principle) for big projects. And not all lazy bums are stupid one.
That's why instant textbox needed next to 'Other' checkbox.

In my old job it was definitely the boss, but I don't have anything to blame anymore.
At the moment I'm answering a Survey.

Last week, monday morning, 5 minutes before our weekly online team meeting, my computer decided to restart itself to install the latest Windows update (Creator's version or some crap like that). No warning, no possibility to postpone or reschedule, nothing. Took the best part of an hour.
After that, my VPN connections didn't work. My internet didn't work. My hyper-v development machine didn't work. Took me almost two days to get everything working again!
Needless to say, I was not a happy camper!

Windows 10 is sh*t.
The next clean install that I do will be Windows 8.1.

I have connections. My newest machines are running legal copies of Windows 7 and I got a new one last month... could not be happier! It runs so fast!

Keep it up guys.
Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning

Your catch frase was beautiful.
Yes! The universe is winning... lol

Besides mind changings and a slow (rather old) system:
People talking loud or phoning on the floor in the front of my office. The door is usually open all the times but if it becomes too annoying I close it.

People: They phone, they knock on the door, they shout obscenities at the TV ...
Cat: He sits on my keyboard, demands to be let in the front door (his cat flap is round the back), wants to be dried, sits on my computer (made of warm) to dry himself, wants more food, wants me to turn the rain / snow off, ...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

We have a baby gate to help contain the cats.

I'm reasonably certain ours can walk through walls, so a baby gate won't offer much resistance...

I don't understand, cat with far or without far?
I do not fear of failure. I fear of giving up out of frustration.

While we were happy when it finally released, I must say, there hasn't been a version before, that was so full of bugs.
Currently I think most of the problems are related to building/gradle system and we alle hope that there will be fixes soon.
Our work depends highly on in-house developed .aar libraries and the update of those libraries is a nightmare. "Byte code does not match the source code", broken/invalid caches, not even disabling the build cache helps. "Invalidate caches and restart" is done a dozen times a day, causing another 5-8 minutes waiting time during rebuild after reopening a project and in 4 out of 5 tries, it didn't even help.
Unfortunately we can't step back to 2.3. At the moment our productivity is reduced by 30% or more just because of android studio 3.0... What immense costs that causes I do not need to tell...
