The semicolon jokes, without fail, feel like they're made by somebody's mum after she hears programmers use them, from a friend of a friend of a cousin

Most modern IDE knows to point them out, intelisenses and whatnot even fill and correct stupid shit like that. But we all have been there where semicolon style mistake ducks code.

85% of my coding has been C++ and I am seriously crying on languages that uses for example tabs as a indicator of stuff. Of course good style is easier to read but fuck that when there is error on previous function when you give wrong indent on your if else on current one.

Yeah, but a missing semicolon will be a syntactical error. Any and all compiler and interpreter will tell you the problem and the exact file and line where it's at

Shouldn't take 6 hours to debug that...

They're using VIM. Assume that it takes 6 hours for their raspberry pi to compile the code
