Tell me you’re a JavaScript StackOverflow copy-pasta noob without telling me you’re a JavaScript StackOverflow copy-pasta noob.
I don’t get it? When has this ever fixed a bug? Compiler error sure? But a bug?
I actually had a bug in a game jam freshman year because of this. It was java, so there was a lot of questionable decisions going on, but adding the semicolon fixed it!
…I want details. Java is my most used language and I want to know lol
… now that I’m thinking harder it may have been a colon? The real problem was that we’d only been programming a few months at that point and were pretty good at accidentally fucking up syntax
Ah, I mean syntax issues trigger compiler errors though. I’m not sure of one that compiles but has odd behavior… except the increment/decrement operators. Maybe I’m just not remembering one
This type of shit makes me aware that there really are devs that don’t care about efficiency and will spend weeks on some really novice shit because their tools and skills are bad.

Good tip for Pascal.
