Worst thing about being a programmer? Occasionally having to develop stuff you know nobody will ever use

Worst thing is to develop something YOU would never use!

Been there. When it happens try to value the process of improving and learning new coding techniques. Don't worry about experimenting 'cause no one is going to use it 😀

@Jumpshot44 i am talking about real life projects for real clients. Of course experiments can be thrown away at anytime

Only occasionally? Are you guys hiring?

@Greggergalactic do you work at my company? Thats same issue my current project faces

@Greggergalactic yeah. We tried to stop our client to stop putting in ridiculous features into the app and focus on what her users actually want. But no, she thinks she is smarter than we and kept making things "easy and fun". Now the key performance indicators of the product are shitty and of course its our fault
