Disappointment thread

Share your disappointments, progriders. Large or small.

I'll start with two:

1) In my career, I didn't end up doing simulations of interesting systems, just conversions of enterprise data between systems whose architects didn't talk to each other and liked padding their resumes with obscure data formats.

2) The Java annotation @VisibleForTesting looks cool the first time you see it, because you think ``Oh, cool. Automatic reflected access unrestriction under my testing framework!''. But actually it doesn't do anything at all. Shit, man, if you want me to comment // public, not private, for injection in integration tests I can do that already.

When my professors mentioned EXTREME PROGRAMMING, I was very excited. It must be very exciting! Like some sort of competition for hotheaded programmers with big rewards for those who were able to work in the danger zone.

Yup, what a disappointment.
