One extremem frustration I have with software engineering, is finding good books.
Software engineering books are too wordy. They ramble.
I wish they were more like Math text books.
GET TO THE POINT.
Most software engineering books are an inch think or more. Mostly they are filled with examples. I really just need the facts. Most of us are smart enough to understand the facts without examples.

high school conf track meet
It was ungodly hot, in the 90's at least.
Neel finished the 1600 in 5:15, missing his PR by 2 seconds.
Neel was pretty angry at the end of the race.
In his words, he was not angry about not being able to beat his PR.
He was angry about not beating his PR (this time.)
In other words, he knows he will continue to improve and keep posting new PR's.
