while (TRUE) {
if (happiness / 1 > π)

Please compile, please compile,
It would surely make me smile,
When I glance at the clock,
And thirty minutes has gone by non-stop,
I think that I've won, that I've beaten the odds,
But alas it is not the day, says the evil programming gods,
As this is all a ruse, just one big long deception,
Since my terminal froze ten minutes ago, from an UndefinedException

Summertime code - a haiku.

Tranquil summertime
A snaking, squiggly code builds
despite the linter

I scaffolded it
I coded it
I refactored it
I tested it
I deployed it
I need a beer

Code oh code
You should work
But you don't
You're a real mess
Oh, maybe that's the point?

This is lame but try it on Language CLI.

If you happy and you know it.
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

If you happy and you know it.
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

If you happy and you know it, Then your face will surely show it, If you happy and you know it.
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I started out coding, some five years ago, the language was MATLAB, though I wish it was Go.

I was really tired, of tough physics lore, I went to switch majors, to code even more.

I first was astounded, how simple it was, when I first coded Python, I felt like a boss!

At first it was for-loops, and functions and such, And then there was Django, it assisted me much.

While Python has helped me, to get good with code, lately I’ve tended to do more with node(.js)

Code, oh code,
is this string a float?
Let me write a method to check,
with numerous errors the compiler reports back!
What the heck did I wrong?
Give me a hint, at least a little one!
After searching half the day,
I got it fixed - hurray!
Brought up during my daily retrospective,
in the future, I have to be more perceptive!
