Just take a few of the following statements and for each of them that apply to you give yourself a DFBSP (Developer Frustration Bullshit point).

I feel like I’m falling behind in my knowledge as a developer

I am not working on cool new technology like everybody else does

I am worried that my skillset is getting rusty and I don’t know the things current employers are looking for

I am pretty sure you can nod along to at least one of these points. And I do feel the same. I have the benefit of having worked in this market for 25 years, and I’ve seen the same patterns emerge over and over again. But I also understand that people are anxious and worried. That’s terrible and we shouldn’t feel that way. One reason why we are like that is noise.
