I find it hard to trust code school's courses when they use green as the color for error.

Happened just now:
Client: Please remove this page from the site ASAP, and tell me when its done.
Me: Done
Client: what's wrong am getting an error code(404) when I click on the link.

Am not sure how to reply to that

Status code: 200
Content-Type: application/json
Body: {"error": true, "responseCode":400 }

Sending HTTP status code 200 with error info in the body

Shared screen with a client over Skype. Showed them in Postman that their API wasn't working as expected. It was expecting a json. Instead it was giving error code 400 instead of 200.
Message :
"Error: No error. All OK"

I'll never forget the words of the client:

"Don't use all this fancy software, you don't know how to call APIs, open Internet Explorer or chrome and paste it in the bar. You'll see All OK, means all is okay."

*insert you dense mf meme here*

Got my hands on an interesting API.
Look around on the site.
No documentation. Like, nothing. Not even examples.
Tried calling it.
Response code: 200 OK
Body: Unknown Error.

Well, fuck you too.

Me: We should change the http response code to anything but 200 OK in the error response case of our API.
Other dev: No, it's fine.
Me: Why?
Other dev: The client successfully receives an error message.
Me: ┻━┻ ︵ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ︵ ┻━┻

Friend: Dude, could you look at my code, see what's wrong??

Me: Its not indented. Indent is properly first..

My code just returned "ERROR: 200 OK"

It's only 3pm

destination: wrong code

Call Apple support, give them a Windows error code.

Good times.

When you spend 2 hours looking for the error in your code to find out youre using the wrong database

Every code error search ever

Here is my debugging buddy. Checks my code, and lands on the part of the screen where the error is. I'll feel bad when I kill him

If only it was this simple. Hi all, im new, I found this app while window shopping the play store, after reading some of the daily post, I think im gonna stay :) i wish your code the best. *returns to staring at compiling error for the next 3 hours*

Meet Ricky, my "rubber duck". Sometimes I explain my code to him. He never found a single error. 😂👍💻🐕

How to fix an error?

Just comment out the code in the actual framework which throws the error, than fixing your code.😂😂

error = (more code)²

E = mc²

When you change one line of code

When you stare at your syntactically correct but logically wrong code for hours but can't find that little bitch of an error.
And then you call up your colleague, and it doesn't take him 4.3seconds to spot it.
-___________________-

Friend: Hey can you check my code, can't seen to find this one error, and i have been trying for hours now.
Me: Just one error?
Friend: Ya, just one. And it i am not in a hurry, check it whenever you can.
Me: *understanding the pain of not finding that one fucking error*
Cool, just send me the code i ll check it tonight.

Later that night i check the code, debugg that error, shit ton of more error pop up.
Me: Well i have solved the one error, now i can just hand over the rest of the code to the guy so he can take care of the rest, its not like i am responsible or aything. HOWEVER, maybe i can solve few more, just for fun, i can't just let this code get the better of me.

*ends up clearing all the error after a lomg night*

Me trying to install a software :

1. Download the binary file
2. Error this file can't be executed
3. Download the source code
4. Compile
5. Error - instruction not supported by this OS
6. Create a new disk partition
7. Download ubuntu
8. Install ubuntu
9. Apt-get install
10. Error - package not readable by this version of ubuntu
11. Kill myself

How the duck am I supposed to fix an error on line 153? This code has 14 lines 😑

Look... theres an error in my commented code
Now what i cant even comment

What's your funniest error message while testing your code ?

For me : Fatal error - Parachute deployed.

0_o

When your code finally complies after trying to solve a tricky error

That moment you are coding as a group,and you have one error in your code.after rectifying your one error you get more than 5 errors,and all you can do is stare at that code.

The moment your code is so good that there is no lint error,

intentionally modify the code to have some warning to check if linter is working.

lol

great error code

Customer.... I keep getting this error code
Me.... Deletes message box
Customer.... Wow you fixed that quick
Me.... That's why you pay us.

"Fatal Error"
Exceptions? No, let's just halt the entire program.

Apparently a CS professor wrote this code.

"Needed to keep the compiler happy"

Me: Why dosn't cp return an error code when the file in the first argument doesn't exist?

Coworker: Well, you copied a file that doesn't exist to a destination that also doesn't exist, sounds like a successful copy to me.

This code isn't working right, better check the log...

ERROR: There was an error.

Alright, cool, chill. Thanks for the top notch error handling. 👌

Whenever a language has a goto statement I can't resist :

On error goto hell
// code
Hell:
// error handling

debugging php code without turning on error reporting.

Installing Ubuntu in VMWare. After the installation, proceeded to install VMWare tools to get the full resolution.

Shitloads of errors. Kernel build failing, gcc exiting with error code other than 0, all the copying failed. At the end of the process the executable says:

Enjoy,

What the fuck am supposed to enjoy? My broken fucking Ubuntu in a VM?

Spectrum Dev: Hmmm.. what should I use for an error code...

Another Dev: The hell should I know.. what's your favorite letter?

White screen of death

Yesterday I installed the linux subsystem. Wrote some python code, but it never run no matter what. It was always the same sintax error. I got pretty desperate after finding no solution on google and decided to reinstall the linux subsystem, erasing everything I made.

Turns out the problem was that python pointed to python 2.7 instead of 3. I'm not a smart man.

One of my friend's was watching me code. When I got an error, this is what he said.

"You got a big error, so you must be a bad programmer"

0. Problem
1. Thinking of an algo
2. Writing a code
3. Compile
4. Compile Error
5. Fixing bugs
...
6. Finally compiled!!
7. Running a test
8. Run time error
9. Fixing bugs
...
10. Finally I can see the result !!!!
11. Shit!

12. LOGICAL ERROR :/

If you're gonna comment a lot or a little, at least be consistent. I just read some code like this:

//prints "are you ready?"
printf("are you ready?");

//get the value
int findVal(int x) {
/* some fucking complex algorithm with no comments whatsoever that seems to have an error messing everything up */
}

Le Me: well it is the time to go back on that Android project and resume the work.

*Open Android Studio, open the project.
*Wait 10 minutes for build/index
*error: gradle outdated, that is ok, update it.
*error: some library needs update
*error: R not found
*error: internal IDE error.

*Clean Project: PC hangs, Fan go so fast..

Shit ! I even not touched the code !

Scammer calls claiming to be windows security expert.

Them: "sir, your windows computer is sending error code. Please turn it on so I cam Fix it. "

Me: "windows? I have a mac."

Them: "um.... " *hangs up*

Me: gotcha

Teach people how to google properly.

May sound a bit sarcastic but I think an important part is how to look for errors on your own rather than going to the professor/TA. I’ve seen people paste in whole error logs or more often “code throws error, what do?”

At least teach in classes what to look out for like what error type in java and understanding how to look at stackoverflow questions to apply their solution to your issue.

Moral of the story: teach people how to use existing knowledge rather than just depend on someone to help their exact issue.

The time when i learned to turn on the developer options ; i felt the same as a developer who has compiled his code without a single error. 😂

Not so fast bae..

Me: I should use an informative status code to let my users know what went wrong

Me to me: *500 internal server error*

If you delete the code that shows the error message the error goes away

Is it true that Alan Turing actually managed to crack an Oracle DB Error Code?

A big part of the code of my project is done in French

all but one small part, which is English. But uses also some French methods and names.

So when you have an error because you put "Objet" instead of "Object" because it's in French

My code is not working, why?

Is it just me that is addicted to the feeling when you solved a big problem with the code and everything just works afterwards? Its such a nice feeling!!

2 situations when you are equally fucked :

1. It should have failed here, why is it passing?! 😯

2. It should have passed here, why is it failing?! 😯

The first fucking law of software quality...

e=mc²

errors=(more code)²

>Barely ever written python before
>Gets added to a python group project
>Codes the part I'm associated with
>Runs fine after about 19 tries
>Puts it together with other people's code
>Syntax error
>Searches for the error for 2 and a half hours
>tfw other people use 4 spaces instead of a tab like I do and pythong can't handle it :(

This was on a key cutting machine at the range:
1) They use XP
2) They use Java
3) It was touch screen so I could have gotten up an on screen keyboard and actually used the command prompt

Sometimes when I can't find an error, I just rewrite the problematic code. Often I end up solving the error and having cleaner code. Win win.

Finally fixed a major bug.....

FUCK YOU C# AND YOUR FUCKING CASE SENSITIVE BULLSHIT.

DAYS
THAT TOOK FUCKING DAYS AND AT NO POINT DUD VISUAL STUDIO BOTHER TO MENTION THAT FUCKING ERROR.

1 CHARACTER, ON ONE LINE, EFFECTIVELY BROKE THOUSANDS OF LINES OF CODE

HTTP Error Code 420: "Enhance Your Calm"

Boss: I have a demo NOW, but there os an error message on that page.

MySQL has the absolute worst error messages.

"You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds blah blah near '(some random code line)'".

How vague can you be? It doesn't help that I always find the error in a completely different place to where the message says it is.

Error Code: 200 OK

Wait.. what?

When it's 5AM, you had zero sleep and your deadline is in 3 hours: Oh loard my saviour php, please - PLEASE just let my peace of shit code work for once. *reloads page*
Error message appears. FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCK!

Whenever my friend messages me to debug his code or to correct the errors, I google the line with the error, open the first result and copy and send the solution to him.

Now he thinks I'm a badass programmer😂

Why does FireFox has the shittiest dev tools?
Working on my website and it kept throwing "TypeError: Failed to fetch"
with no other info

Opened Chrome and that thing gave me the entire error without even modifying my logs code, and now I can peacefully solve the problem -.-

So I just wanted to log back into windows. Typed in the password. Wrong password...
Then I tried being super accurate while typing and also checked keyboard layout, etc. Still, wrong password.
Then I noticed that the letter p is not working. Shit, keyboard seems to be broken.
On screen keyboard -> p is not working...

What the hell? What kind of error is this?

NT Kernel code has to be something like this:
if(timeSinceLastError > someValue)
keyboard.p.enable = false;

I guess you could also replace the keyboard error with some random error.

If you encounter this, restart Windows.

Put random text in window.alert() where ever I got error in JavaScript code. Random text like 1) If you see this, you are fucked; 2) error 001; 3)why today; 4) the code is breaking here etc.

And never removed them. They are the running in production till now. I am just thankful to the gods that the code Nevers break and the user does not get browser alert and also the fact that I don't work there anymore.

*Me after writing a piece of code and praying to god that there are no errors.*

My pc: 1 error(s) found.

Me : "I hate coding. I hate coding. I hate coding."

*Tries everything to solve that problem.*

My pc: No errors found.

Me: "I love coding.Yay xD"

someone pushes code and breaks ci.
me: you broke the build
her: (ignoring the explicit error message) it works on my machine, travis is broken
me: it doesn't even work on my machine!
her: I forgot to push one file, sorry.

So that's what they mean by the HTTP error code 418: I'm a teapot.

When I'm programming: I see a warning with my code "oh it's OK it will disappear".
I see a error "oh again ?" 😂😂

There was an error in one of my Java file. Impossible to find it. I commented all the code and the error remain. I commented the import of that class and no more error. How the f**** is possible that a empty class give an error ?
I opened the file in another text editor and found out that the last character was a symbol that wasn't recognize or display in other text editor.
I was really proud (and confused)

*writing code*
*compile*
*Error*
*compile again*
*Success*

Thats why coding is magic

This is a short tale that can be summed up as "oh fuck meee".

After finishing an API the night before I settled in for a day of bug fixes and tidy ups. Until slack went off.

The front end dev was getting an error, a code breaking error. After doing the standard process of request checking i went okay must be me. I find the script that is has the error and the line that it is failing at.

Que 2 hours of the full cycle of anger, sadness, pleading, and finally acepting that it had finally happened I had gone insane. The code was to documentation best practise correct and it still had the same error.

I the cheaked the DB on a whim and I found that my code was not wrong and it was doing exactly what I wanted the data however had a single record that was old and the schema had change juuussstt enoigh to break everything at that record. One 3 secound deletion later code ran perfectly.

ERROR MESSAGE:
<I am written in plain english>
<Here is the line number of the error>
<Here is the possible reason for the error>

Developer: What the heck is wrong with my code now. (looking at source)

ERROR MESSAGE:
<You incompetent piece of s**t, READ ME. F'n READ ME. Please READ ME. I promise, I be helpful.>
<Nope. You aren't gonna. Fine!>

When you're confident in your code, but it starts listing errors like nobody's business

Shiiiiit GCC just throwed this error at me:
ERROR: Your code is so terrible that i refuse to compile it.

Well fuck.

Progress: I have Lua code running, however it returns an error every time.

An error containing the result I wanted.

Picking up other developers code can be the worst sometimes..

That moment when you couldn't figure out where your JS code went wrong,just because it doesn't show you any clue about the error :'(

I just love to sit and watch code compile.
Better if the project is huge (Android).
Buuuum then fucking error appear and break the beautiful time !!!

my reaction when my code runs without any error, that too for the first time.

App fails, Check logs...No error logged. Check source code and debug....
And then you see following piece of code....

try{
//Code to hit an API
}catch(Exception ex){
/*DO NOTHING. Not even log stack trace*/
}

Gradle just got updated and every fucking code shows error now!
Goddamn it android studio.

How my colleague fixes an error in an old PHP code ... And it works ...

My friend once told me, that when he was trying really hard to find an error on his code (which caused the app couldn't run), he didn't get any of syntax error.

But when he try to skim the query, he found a little query typo that cause the long development delay due to that error. He mistyped SELECT as SELET.

For you who don't get the joke. SELET, in my language (Javanese Language), means ASS/BUTT/ARSE. My friend felt like to be cursed by his own code, after searching the error.

Makes me wanna strangle my 490 days younger self..

Have anyone felt this before?

You Google loads of different tutorial on something, find one most recent tutorial... Do it and when compile, a lot of error pops out. Go to the github code page and realise the author did not include the line that was required to run smoothly in the tutorial page/video?

Programming:

1%: Creating cool things.

105%: Spending two hours trying to figure out some error when all that was wrong was that you forgot to put a semicolon somewhere;

Got stucked in a problem with recursion in php, almost 2 days no sign of progress until i told my co worker how my code works, then i found the error and it work. I think developers need to talk about the code to realize whats wrong with the code.

imagine a 404 error page request get a 404 response, what error code would it show? LOL!

Me: Runs app

*Crash with error*

Me: Changes one thing, then runs again

*Crash with different error in another part of code*

Me: Fixes that error and runs again

*A FATAL ERROR HAS BEEN DETECTED BY THE JAVA RUNTIME ENVIRONMENT*

Me: Runs app again, "Maybe it was just a hiccup."

*A FATAL ERROR HAS BEEN DETECTED BY THE JAVA RUNTIME ENVIRONMENT*

Me: Chucks laptop out window. Goes to gaming PC to play Dark Souls 3, because it's less angering than this.

Guy's Discord bot "crashes"
we asked him what error.
"no error" he replies
we ask for a screenshot.
bot immediately exists

We ask: have you added this and this (`client.login(token)`)?
He replies: "yes"
We ask for sauce-code, he provides
what do we see? he forgot to add `client.login(token)`

Me: * Writes half a line of code in an unfinished file *

Me: * Remembers a dependency that has to be installed for this to work *

Me: * composer require thatone/dependency *

Composer: ERROR! Found a syntax error in that one file you were working on, reverting everything you love and removing that dependency that took 10 minutes to install.

:/

What do you mean fatal error? The exact same code was working five minutes ago you fuck

Damnitdamnitdamnit

Life of dev

Fatal error: Call to undefined function birth(); on line 1

So normally I go with a super-conservative error handler that logs errors, and exit the process on even the tinyest/smallest error.
Regardless or project/cms/framework I always to this to prevent myself from installing spaghetti plugins or writing unstable code.
Also because I don't want any code to just soldier on if a variable wasn't defined properly, or likewise.

But today I had to write this little fucker into my error handler, to support the error surpressing operator '@'

Appearently prestashop was developed by a group of senseless moronic fuckwits,
and hteir piece of horseshit software doesn't even work if it isn't allowed to surpress errors.

What was the fucking imbeciles thinking when requiring such lunatic behaviour...

Spent 45 minutes looking at my java code only to find out the reason I was getting an error was that I had a lowercase s for system.out.println

Now what exactly do I do with this error code. Windows sometimes sucks at showing proper errors :/

That moment when rerunning the code fixes the error that the IDE has been throwing, after not finding what could be the issue for said error.

That's true with me in older days I am happy when my code runs without error on first time...but now it seems like borring and error make me happy.😂😂

A nice framed print made by our senior devs. Could you spot the error ?

I'll just complete this function block and be right back
.

Said no programmer ever.

Legacy code again.... found this... losing faith...

*In competitive coding*
My code has an error
Me : *doesn't have a clue*

My code gets executed
Me : *doesn't have a clue*
XD

So a new dev had an issue, if the wrong credentials are in the code it will crash because the unauthorised error isn't being handled.

I physically added the error handler, to his code, on his machine ... 3 days later it's not there.

Asked him and he says "sorry I must have deleted it"

... that's grounds for dismissal right? ... like ... seriously

Lazy fucking google programmer spotted...

sad joke

When you can't tell why your code is not working, and you wish to see an error message...

why on Earth do I find PHP error notices in the _JS_ console when debugging this old project... and those notices are even stopping the code from working. seriously, PHP, why??

When you've spent hours debugging a problem of session not being saved and there is no error. And then you find this in the code:

try{
save_session();
}catch(Exception $e){}// added by another member of the team

🙈😖🖕🏻

Just finished writing some code.
Got one error.
"Alright" I said, "almost done!"
*fixes the error*
"2589 errors"
I guess someone up there really hates me...

developing add-ons for Casio calculators is definitely the best experience. No syntax or error highlighting. Average failed builds between successful builds: 12 🤔

Hey guys, some of you might know this but for those who do not, there is an april fools HTTP error code which is 418, it's description is 'I\'m a teapot' #TheMoreYouKnow

(felt the need to escape sorry not sorry)

I would make unintelligent customers disappear.

Reason:
What did I do today, one may ask? Spent the entire day debugging code and creating test cases to fix a high priority trouble ticket submitted by the PM of a program.....where nothing was wrong to begin with.
User error makes the world sad.

If an http request can't perform the requested operation, should server send 500 error code? Or 200 with status and status message in response?

Isn't 500 used only for unhandled exceptions on server side?

The most frustrating error is logic error. You see no warning or error message. It's just your program doesn't work as expected.

You spend hours inspecting your code, putting var_dump, console.error, print, whatever... in order to figure out what's wrong.

Yet, you still can't find out what's wrong. You decide to take a sleep. And you are waking up while having this uncomfortable feeling in your mind.

And since this is devrant, I'll insert some swearing here:

F*cking dammit node.js... what's wrong with your f*cking logic flow.... non-blocking you said, rotten deep in callback hell damnation you said....

I had an error caused by a random "i" in my code i had inserted somewhere in my IDE... to go into insert mode

read this somewhere on the internet

e=(mc)²

error = (more code)²

guess it's true

all documentation points to an Invalid auth token being code 400 (ignore the fact that this is a code in the JSON response and not HTTP)

Me: here iz credential. Plz send datas
API: haha fock off and die mate, then credentials you got there aren’t workin’
API: code 998 invalid auth token
Me: *speechless* so that’s why it took me longer than it did to find that error, because YOUR CODE WAS MISSING ALL MY CHECKS FOR CODE 400.

Why can’t people design apis properly.

Writing code an testing it: works fine.
Not touching it for 3 weeks: can't compile it due to an gradle error

I hate Cordova!

Ah, the beautiful feeling of fanatically trying to debug the code in a particular file for a few hours only to realise that the error was in a different file...

Fuck you too, C++ template errors.

"Dear Windows staff,

To think a fatal error screen can be shown beautifully is likeable.
To add in a QR code to be redirected to some assistance is likeable.
But like things that are likeable, THEY DON'T NEED TO BE REGULARLY SHOVED TO THE FACE !

Sincerest regards,
One who desperately wants to shutdown Windows Update once and for all.

i hate windows errors so much
there's no information whatsoever, its just "error code 0x696969 lmao something wrong try again later"

what i hate even more is asking microsoft forums what the error code means and being asked if ive tried turning it off and on again

Ever got that thing, when your IDE says that you have a syntax error in your code, and you reread it again and again and just can't see it, so you just delete the whole thing and write it again - exactly the same - but now it compiles fine?

After hours of thoroughly reading code to find the error...

What you wanted:
If (something == true)
What you had:
If (something = true)

Hopefully no one ever finds that error before me!

That moment when the code doesn't compile due to an error in a different module that you never touched after merging the master branch into yours...

SO MAD. Hands are shaking after dealing with this awful API for too long. I just sent this to a contact at JP Morgan Chase.

-------------------
Hello [X],
1. I'm having absolutely no luck logging in to this account to check the Order Abstraction service settings. I was able to log in once earlier this morning, but ever since I've received this frustratingly vague "We are currently unable to complete your request" error message (attached). I even switched IP's via a VPN, and was able to get as far as entering the below Identification Code until I got the same message. Has this account been blocked? Password incorrect? What's the issue?

2. I've been researching the Order Abstraction API for hours as well, attempting to defuddle this gem of an API call response:

error=1&message=Authentication+failure....processing+stopped

NOWHERE in the documentation (last updated 14 months ago) is there any reference to this^^ error or any sort of standardized error-handling description whatsoever - unless you count the detailed error codes outlined for the Hosted Payment responses, which this Order Abstraction service completely ignores. Finally, the HTTP response status code from the Abstraction API is "200 OK", signaling that everything is fine and dandy, which is incorrect. The error message indicates there should be a 400-level status code response, such as 401 Unauthorized, 403 Forbidden or at least 400 Bad Request.

Frankly, I am extremely frustrated and tired of working with poorly documented, poorly designed and poorly maintained developer services which fail to follow basic methodology standardized decades ago. Error messages should be clear and descriptive, including HTTP status codes and a parseable response - preferably JSON or XML.
-----

This whole piece of garbage is junk. If you're big enough to own a bank, you're big enough to provide useful error messages to the developers kind enough to attempt to work with you.

I hate dev politics...

PM: Hey there is a weird error happening when I upload this file on production, but it works on our test environments.

Me: After looking at this error, I don't find any issues with the code, but this variable is set when the application is first loaded, I bet it wasn't loaded correctly our last deployment and we just need to reload the application.

Senior Dev: We need to output all of the errors and figure out where this error is coming from. Dump out all the errors on everything in production!!

Me: That's dumb... the code works on test... it's not the code.. it's the application.

Senior dev: %$*^$>&÷^> $

Me: Hey I have an idea! If test works... I can go ahead and deploy last week's changes to prod and dump those errors you were talking about!!

Senior Dev: OK

Me: *runs Jenkins job the deploys the new code and restarts the application*

PM: YAY you fixed it!!

Senior Dev: Did you sump put those errors like I said.

Me: Nope didn't touch a thing... I just deployed my irrelevant changes to that error and reloaded the application.

dat feeling when you code a chunk of a page for 15mins and then you test it for an hour and a half cause you cant believe there's no bug or unhandled error

Problem with code:
Computer: "Error on line 189: ....."
Me: "But the code ended on line 58 "

Typescript: All of your javascript code is valid typescript
Installs Typescript
runs typescript
Typescript: line x in function y has an error
Checking the function for error and the code is fine
After wasting an hour comment out all the linez in function y
Run typescript
Typescript: you have an error on line x which is commented in function y

ERROR IN A COMMENTED LINE :(

Badass scenario:

Professor: writes a loop to sum up first five numbers and asks the output.

Me: 500

Other random student: 15

Prof praises him.

He runs the code.

Output: 500 ( internal server error)

(He had a missing semicolon) 😅

IMAGINE. Your code is working in the 1st attempt.
Wow, Amazing, Cool
Now go back to first word.......👀👀😑😑😑😑😑

Just had a class where we had to write a heap adding algorithm in Java to reduce rounding error for x amount of floats being added together

After an hour of writing code with no testing anything I finished. Ran the JUnit tests provided by the teacher and it passed all the tests!

Who says it can't work the first time?

XCode you fucking piece of shit...

So I just wanted to process my ios app to the app store and start the archive process. All of the sudden:
Command CodeSign failed with a nonzero exit code

What? So there is an error and you cannot tell me the error code? All information you give me that it isn't zero!? Wow... Amazing... What a great user experience. Maybe it cannot resolve the error? Maybe it is some external tool Apple has no access to and that is the only valid error they can throw at us?

Oh hell no! It has something to do with the keychain access! But why tell the user? That wouldn't be as much fun as just tell it is a nonzero error, isn't it apple?!

In the end locking and unlocking my key chain solved the problem... Thanks for nothing XCode!

The intern beside me just called me to solve an error in PHP.

He wrote:
for($slides as $s){
}

The PHP error message wasn't quite clear:
Fatal error: expected ';' on line 84

How could possibly an intern who's becoming an engineer in IT make such mistake and lose like 1h on an error like that? I even attends one of the best universities in the country

PS:
I know engineers aren't supposed to code, but he's been coding for the past month in PHP and was here just to do that

One time I had to review some SAP / Excel / Visual Basic toolchain.

It was a huge mess with like 10 layers of if-then cases in around 1000 lines of code analyzing excel sheets, resolving error codes etc. in maybe two functions.

It turned out that I programmed that code about 8 years ago :/

The feeling you have when new code compiles without error from the first try!

that moment when a friend shows his code to find error solution 🤔😣😧😫

coded a java program in eclipse throws back error .
Know that program is correct.
Created a new project file copy pasted the code, wolaa.. executed.
:/

What I learnt after 3 hrs of debugging for a stupid issue today ?

Lesson 1 - Getting some unknown error even though your code ks right and no error in logs ? Check you SQL version and its rules.

Lesson 2 - phpmyadmin is fuckin shit ass software

Lesson 3- I need to learn JavaScript for backend ASAP

Update: Some error handling for when I'm doing server/code maintenance.

When people write "sys.exit()" in their libraries instead of giving a helpful error and you spend about 3 hours debugging your code and trying to find out why it is exiting.

i always assume that my code is right so when the compiler gives an error, its hard for me to find out why it gives an error and why it doesnt work. my mind is too convinced that it is correct.

i guess i have to sleep it off 😴 maybe tomorrow it will be easier to fix

Not actually solving the problem in an error and instead implementing a workaround thinking "no one's going to read this code anyway" when I'm actually just condemning my future self to a lot of hell.

When you wonder why it doesn’t work put print statements all over the code, because you want to find the error, but no print Statement works even if it just should print test...

Fml

You know you're going to have a great day when your transpiler is spitting out an error that you hard coded to ignore and don't have access to its source code for a couple days .-.

Client calls with an issue(some automated process that's run perfectly fine for years, one error and it's the end of the world), and after 15 minutes of trying to explain to them what happened, they wanted to see the code the error originated from.. so I sent it to them. After a long pause, they agreed with my assessment. 🤣🤣🤣

Me compiling c++ code at 3 am be like:

gcc filename.cpp -o filename

Some error pops up

Cries for a while, looking up for the solution

After writing the whole code again notices was using gcc instead of g++...

For fuck sake why would you put in documentation some functionalities you did not even develop ?! How am I supposed to guess that my error comes from your code when event the fucking DOCSTRING of the method says the use case is handled ?
It's nice to have documentation and commented code, but could you please make it FUCKING coherent with what the code actually does ? I feel like I'm playing fucking riddles here !!

My life is like my code.

Never ending syntax error!

So I see this code:

class ViewWithDisplayLayer {
func viewDisplayLayer() -> CALayer? {
FatalErrorMustOverride()
return nil
}
}

If only Swift bad some way of defining some sort of interface or protocol with methods to be implemented by a class without using class inheritance and wouldn't it be great if that feature also gave a compile time error if you forgot to override/implement said method(s). If only.....

😳

The website I'm working on went down because of a 500 HTTP error and halted my company of working

I should not code in production

Isn't it sad, when your happy because your only down to one line of code error 😂 #PHP

Where art thou semi-colon? Probably not where it fucking should be if I had to bet.

Error. File not found: C:\somedirectory\file.txt
*opens C:\somedirectory\ * *looks at file.txt*
*runs program again*
Error. File not found: C:\somedirectory\file.txt
*changes directory it is looking in, copies file to new directory*
Error. File blank: D:\somedirectory\file.txt
*cry... no it isn't*

I just need to deploy this contractors code... supposedly it ran on another system, but the endless Spring configs hate me... :(

okay just had a mind blown moment.

there are never 'technical errors'

everything is human error.

because at some point, a human started/caused whatever went wrong.

whether it was the fact that a human didn't account for something or made bad code, or made bad hardware,

every tech issue is a human one.

:/

My dev teacher for mobile was teaching us react native. I got an error while compiling it (missed a try catch in a function). My teacher only looked at my code and I hear her say to herself "no semycolon missing" and then she says to me, I don't know what's wrong...

Like... Are you seriously a teacher?

That one line of code that you know the logic of it and you know what is causing the error, but you can’t fix it!

Does anyone have problems with Android instant run?

Fucking hell, I spent one hour yesterday debugging an error, until I noticed that the code in the APK wasn't updated, because it was sending an error of a non-existent line.

Sometimes it works okay, but damn...

Somehow managed to create my own theme for my IDE. Unfortunately didn't implement the highlight feature for semicolons, arrows, comma etc. (totally forgot about it)
Applied it super excitedly and started writing code.
Some lines later a simple loc generated error. Spent nearly 5 hours on fixing the issue. Later realized what was actually missing.
Fuck my life.

Helped my electronics teacher with a basic MATLAB code in beginning of the semester, she awarded extra 2 marks at the end to acknowledge it.

All I did was google the error and apply fix according to first link.😂😂

I'm not even going to bother fixing this code that sends 3 error alerts per error. More alerts is better than no alerts. At least the damn things are getting caught.

Round off error happen in the app. Find a piece of code .

Really fucking nice android studio. Your auto generated code makes my builds fail and your error message don't even care enough to show me in which direction I should go fuck myself.

So another infamous code (or smart code) you decide, there's class 'error' in the template/html and here this genius is removing it and adding it back? is this even logical at any level,

I mean just hide() and show() would do the job

So i've just learned C# and started learning how to use it in unity. And one of my friends asked me if I could help him with an error he couldn't understand, and I said sure (Why didn't he search up what the error meant?). I look at the syntax. This is ruby code, come on man I said i know about C# I don't know anything about ruby man.

You can really tell a lot about a coder from their build log. Especially the actual compile error reasons.

Yes, I'm talking about you who duct-tapes solutions for others to clean your mess up later when your hack falls apart , you dirty ba****d!

So, today a developer from a web app consuming our services requested to fix a 429 http error code (too many requests) they are seeing. The request is on an email with our managers cc'ed

when your script doesnt work like intended.... it only exits with error code 0 and i get a message everything is ok... dam it

Installed celery...
ran my code...
error...
module 'celery' not found...
wondered why...
reviewed...
didn't install it properly in Docker...

end of story

The error in database entry was negated by a bug in front-end code. Two mistakes cancelling out each other!

How is your day going ?
