I stopped worrying about getting stars for my work when I finished kindergarten.

So, you are not concerned about what SCOTUS will soon decide about Reddit upvotes, GitHub stars and similar things?

You really think I should e-mail some of my professors about this?

Well, teaching you is kinda their job, so…yeah.

I don't remember being nearly as frustrated when making my PacMan in JavaScript or my website. Sure, I ran into a problem that "clientWidth" and "clientHeight" didn't work on SVG elements in Firefox, but I immediately thought of a simple work-around.

You’re not impressing anyone.

I am not trying to impress anyone, I am ranting about how frustrating writing shell scripts is.

Well, I sent those shell scripts which I've written to my Operating Systems professor Goran Martinović, to see if he has any ideas on how to improve them. He hasn't responded to me yet.
