What small problems do you face frequently?
spaghetti: I have trouble finding the "Programming Pearls" of various topics.  For example I'd like to find a book of similar quality and style that deals w/ networking computers.  This applies to non-computer related subjects too... for example I'd love to find great books/lectures etc about caring for animals but I don't want to search a lot.  Maybe my problem is I'm lazy :-pI've noticed a recurring pattern where I'll find something really interesting every once in a while... for example I just discovered the Graphics Programming Black Book by accident.  Would be nice to just have a list of learning materials that are highly likely to be good matches for me.
