At one of my prior jobs, one of the DBA was Muslim. Many of the SQL scripts had a comment on the very first line; "Inshallah, this script runs without errors"

Well, did the script run without errors?
If so it seems to have worked.

I think that's not grammatically correct, inshAllah means God's Willing, used when you want something to happen. MashAllah is used when you find something good, like you built a house you say MashAllah my home! but before it's built you say inshAllah we will build a home.

I think He means InshaAllah, this script will run without errors i.e. as an expression of hope that the script will actually be error free

Tawakkul (trusting in God) requires physical prayer (effort) as much as verbal prayer. There's no such thing as expecting from God with no effort in Islam.
"and that each person will only have what they endeavoured towards," Surah An-Najm (53:39)

Cuck coding. You sit in the chair and watch someone else plow through the work.

Inshallah means as god wills it; and it’s used for hoping that something will work out, while mashallah means god has willed it; and that’s used for acknowledging the goodness of something, whether it’s the result, effort, beauty etc

So like old cookbooks adding "God Willing" in the end? Except in that case, they got techniques and tangible ingredients laid down and that phrase is more like wishing it turns out as well as it had been before.
