Introduction
The struggle of being a programmer is understood by none other than another programmer. We came across a lot of problems all day long and we have to overcome each and every obstacle.
So today, I would love us to share things that a coder/programmer hates to encounter?
My thoughts
As a coder/programer I hate following things to encounter
- No Network🌐
- Stuck on one problem that takes a lot of time to get solve😨
- Can't execute the program that I found on the web▶️
Discuss
- What you hate most as a Programmer?
- Nightmare for you as a Programmer?

Well I personally think that bugs are the worst... no matter how hard you try, how clean your code, they always show up... uh nasty bugs
Accidentally merging to production instead of my own branch
Some Tips for networking? Rly stucked with that Part. Doing some Python for data science but now rly intrested in doing Web development especially with django.
uhhh, no network is probably the most devastating for me - I'm regulary looking up even the documentations of my most used tools, because I forgot / don't know in the first place some detail or syntax. Maybe I should crawl them from time to time, just in case.
Anyway I'm gonna add: "A typo you can't find because someone created two nearly identical looking variables (extra annoying when one stems from higher scope and is a distance away defined)"
I did not encounter this too often, tho.
Also: "An Error in a program you didn't write, worse even proprietary, throwing an undescript Error or just crashing. Still everyone expects you to fix it somehow (which sometimes works, eg. when did something wrong, but damn it's frustrating)"
I can get it, I was in remote area for a month and there was no network.
I don't like symbol soup (e.g.
\\<?
) because I can't easily search for symbols. Most languages are moving away from verbosity towards a greater use of symbols each and every day, which makes me sad. I wouldn't say I hate it or that it is a nightmare though but it does make it harder for people to get into programming.What I hate most as a Programmer: PHP and Angular
Nightmare for me as a Programmer: PHP and Angular
PHP and Angular. Haa haa haa
Nightmare:
Hit '2' instead of '1'. Where 1 was "make a backup", and 2 was "restore backup". And there was no feedback that a restore was happening rather than a backup.
And it was for year end processing of all the accounting data.
Unfortunately, this nightmare scenario happened for real. Almost 40 years ago, and still haunts my nightmares.
Yessss they don't specify things
Not being able to come up with a project that will keep my attention until completion. It's my ever living battle in life.
Yess a lot of project dumbed in the middle
Not able to configure a dev environment correctly and realize late into the dev stage
1 - I study hard and in the end I find myself nothing
2- When I forgot something about the programming language, I had to search for it
3-Python (I don't know why I hate it)
4- Many JavaScript methods
Outdated documentation!
Yesss frustrating
Nightmare: Deal directly with customers.
Worse: - with customers who already "coded a bit here and there"
Worst nightmare: Sales selling features that haven't even been planned or discussed with anyone besides the customers.
That nightmare
Imposter syndrome when you don't think you are good enough.
Comparing yourself is nightmare for everyone as you will never be better any anyone, you think
So basically typical day 😂😂😂👆
... Ah and IE support
Clients never satisfied by our work
