That thing when you sit down to learn a new framework / build tool / etc and get waylaid by fixing a bug in said framework / build tool / etc first.

@TheLizardQueen As a long-time crazy cat gentleman and runner of LAN cables through hallways, I have absolutely been there

@pea I just buy a new laptop and that old laptop is now my permanently designated vim / python / lisp / node machine

@mdhughes Hahah brilliant

@TheLizardQueen ...I have also almost been there, too

And then when you say "screw it" and switch to playing with a *different* build tool - and then that one has a bug to fix too

and building is half the battle
