Spent 4 hours trying to figure out what is wrong. Next day, without morning coffee, fixed it & published in 10 mins.

    I do this all the time! I've learned that I should never code when I'm tired....

    The bathrooms at every office I've worked at are magic. I'll toil for an hour on a problem, finally take a 10-100, suddenly think of something else to try, and vuala!

    And those 4 hours happened 12am - 4am. Also, the last 90 minutes of those 4 hours were spent thinking "I think I almost got it!"

    Yep. Happens more often than I'd really care to admit... sometimes the most productive thing is to walk away and do something else. Also, it's often hard to walk away because "it shouldn't be this complicated damn it!" lol

    Always happens to me & I end up figuring it out just before I go to sleep. Damn.

    It's when you get home from work and have had an hour or so break away from it and all of a sudden you know exactly what's wrong! But you have to whip the laptop out before you forget 😅
