Does anyone knows why in c++ floats range from numeric_limits<float>::lowest() to ::max() and ::min() is just the lowest positive value instead the actual minimum? This strange naming convention just costs me an hour of my life that I'm never getting back...

I always put redundant parentheses in formula like ((b - a) / 2) + a because I just don't trust the compiler.

The moment you realize that your dev colleague has just totally given up on the project (and you get why)...

When you copy&paste a code snippet from a forum into your IDE like VS and suddenly - for some reason - after every single line comes an empty line that you first have to manually delete so that your OCD doesn't bite off your own head.
