Do I need a paint booth? Absolutely not. Do I want a paint booth? Absolutely. How often would I use it? Not often at all. Do I want a paint booth? Absolutely.

Today I realized I have a programming problem: my aesthetics. I start writing code, tackling a problem, and then I will get distracted by the aesthetics of the code. And I start getting derailed, going down the rabbit hole of fonts, alignment and space. The coding starts taking much longer than it should, and in the end, I end up with maybe beautiful, but unfinished programs, where I would be better off with finished but ugly programs. So for the project I have been working on for the past couple of weeks, this morning I stripped out most all of the aesthetics, and promised myself that I would leave it that way until it is mainly completed. It is just a scrolling command line. Everything left justified. I only allow myself spaces. I had a very happy rest of my day. Anybody else have this problem?
