Programming, she is a harsh mistress
Some days, things don’t just fall into place. They arrive unexpectedly, by the hordes, and jump into places you didn’t know you needed things to fall into. Complete answers appear within the little three line summary of a Google search.
And then there are days when nothing works. Without any explanation, code that used to work stop working. And, oh sure, there are workarounds, rendering out multiple single layered file instead of a single multi-layered one, but that brings with it a sense of bitter defeat. All mighty google provides pages upon pages of pointless banter, of little practical use. And a creeping feeling that somewhere out there, an API is laughing, in an electronically synthesized voice.

if anything ever worked flawlessly and on time- programming would pay so much less. – as to earlier brainnot fighting gravity and touching the toes….uhm par for the course some days. par for the course.
@I_once_was - Ya’know… taking a walk to clear the head might actually work with the whole programming thing…
@Lakakalo - new perspectives often help
@I_once_was - Unless the intricacies of Syntax is involved. If so, then may God help the poor soul without reference.
To my own awareness all the things you answer seems extraordinary
