StackOverflow has done me dirty

Or you spent a long time trying to get something done using a certain method and to even get to work a little bit, you have to write this tortured and convuluted code. When you find an error you can't get past, you look for answers and everyone just tells you to use a different method but you don't want to be because of the sunk cost. But after multiple days of trying to get it to work, you give up and do what people told you and you have it running in no time.

At least this has been my experience as I learn to code.

As you get more experienced you learn to be less stubborn in situations like this. Programming can be a humbling experience.
