Writing code used to make me happy, now it makes my chest hurt. The mapping code I’ve been working on for months was based on a simple client login mode that gave me access to Google spreadsheets. They disabled that access last month and required oauth2 to get there. Day after day, and test after test, I just can’t make it work…
Maybe I’m getting too old to be a functioning programmer. In my prime I was considered a prodigy. I developed some sweet big time systems for some large companies. I’m amazed at the code that flowed from my brain in those days.
Now I’m just an old guy writing stuff that few people see, and stressing out over it. What really bugs me is the fact that I can’t use my new mapping apps to plan my summer, as that’s precisely why they were created…

Here’s the spec: https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/OAuth2
Can you figure it out Skoge?
Google and the oauth2 developers are a bunch of smartass punk kids who live in their own world of tech badass. Examples and real world solutions don’t play in their world. You either get it, or you don’t…
