Intrigued by a post by ChicagoPhil:
Here are two examples of things I have given up on:
1. Getting my code to read emails from an inbox and create database entries based on the contents.
Impossible to get right, to get stable, and not be open to corruption from users emailing stupid things.
2. Flow charts online
Creating a flow chart app that allowed users to click and drag elements with the connectors smoothly re-writing themselves like they do on powerpoint or publisher etc. Impossible to make responsive.
Just wondering what code or projects have you given up on?
