> some of the details create unexpected problems
I get stumped on issues that crop up along the way, can't figure them out, don't no how to ask for help. I think that my projects are too special to reveal details about even though I eventually would release the code for every single one of them. I get disheartened far too easily, put the task down saying that I'll come back to it and then six months goes by and I've forgotten the details and it takes me ages to get back up to speed.
- dpapathanasiou 16y agoThere are always places you can get help online: comp.lang.* is still pretty good (depending on the specific language), and sites like StackOverflow usually have good advice.

Ask your question at http://stackoverflow.com http://stackoverflow.com (actually, open an account right now, so it's ready for when you need it).
