For me, the thing that gets a bit discouraging at times is the feeling of riding a slow-motion merry-go-round.
For me, the thing that gets a bit discouraging at times is the feeling of riding a slow-motion merry-go-round. Every 10 years or so you see the same ideas start to come around again, only with some new paint and landscaping. I have found myself more than once thinking that learning about some new trendy buzzword is just ultimately a waste of time, since I will barely have mastered it before it's been replaced by the next new/old thing. On the other hand, it gets easier since none of the concepts are new anymore, and I tell myself, "hey, if you want to pay me to build a client-server app in the browser like it was 1995 (substitute Powerbuilder for Firefox/Chrome), great, happy to take your money."
