Can it be I'm using an older version of the jquery library for chrome?

Spend all day at work coding (sort-of, debugging other people's code is considered coding, right?), then try to go home and code my own side project, but just get burnt out incredibly fast and give up because of the poor quality of code generated and no accountability.

Any suggestions for overcoming programming fatigue? Caffeine is nice and all, but see the above comment on poor quality of code generated; sleep deprivation doesn't sound like a good path forward.

Programming is no make-money-quick scheme. Spend the next 6 month learning whatever you are interested in (mobile apps, websites, whatever) and if you are still interested, spend another year doing the same until you know enough to start working in the field.

Switch careers.

Working with bad programmers and fixing their stupid bugs every day threw me into a complete burnout that i most likely never will recover from. Even in my private projects i now have a complete "writer's block" and have trouble solving minor problems.

Other than that:
Try to teach others proper programming techniques so you don't have to debug their code all the time. Working with at least a decent codebase is so much less stressful and might make you enjoy it.
I at least got people from writing horrible, messy code to writing horrible but at least properly formatted code that even had proper variable names. I still had to spend 75% of my workday cleaning up their messes but maybe if i had survived another year or two, maybe it would have only been 50% by then.

Bad programmers are the scourge of professional programming, you will never get rid of them since there are too many people similar to the poster a few posts above with "I want to earn money with programming. I don't know anything about programming though."
