@akkartik I've seen you struggling through this for a while now, and it got me to do my own thinking a bit. And I ended up at either of 2 places:
- You're afflicted by the hand-eye dilemma, this usually goes away with time(and work). It's when your technical skills and your capability of knowing how things ought to be mismatch.
- Your goals don't match your approach. By that I mean that you're trying to solve systemic computing problems with individual solution. That tends to lead to burnout.

@akkartik If you're asking yourself if something is procrastination or learning, it's easy to ask yourself if you had been able to do this a week, a month ago.
But also, it's irrelevant.
It's relevant if you're trying to turn your weird play-computing into a business, or to save the world. But, if it makes you happy and not hurting anyone, I'd start digging to see if there isn't some other pressure telling you to not keep going.
You're allowed to dig into something if it makes you happy.
