Why would valgrind with `--inclusive=yes` say that a function used 30% of the time but a graph visualisation that also seems to do inclusive timing (breaking it into each child leg) only shows 2.5% of the time in the same function and the things it calls? 🤨

Feeling like a code detective today, trying to debug this quirky piece of software like 🕵️‍♂️🔍 But seriously, who let the bugs out? 😩 #DebuggingAdventures #CodeQuirks #CodingLife #DeveloperProblems #WhereIsTheBug #NeedASherlockHolmesOfCode

fighting SSL certs this morning. what else is new.... #DeveloperProblems

am i having fun automating? yes, but no #NeedTestsToPass #DeveloperProblems

With python, you get to add elif 😘
I keep writing elif in JS and confusing myself. Also confuse myself writing variables without Let or Const.

And you get to that bridge...

The hardest part about being a multilingual or full-stack developer is remembering the else if syntax structure of all the shit you work with...

if/else if/else
if/elseif/else
if/elsif/else

Still not working, oh sorry, end if...

It's bad enough jumping between JavaScript and PL/pgSQL, can't wait to add Python to the mix one day 😘

Is wasting an hour debugging an event handler that wasn't firing, before realising that you were just clicking the wrong button, about the right time to call it a day for working in 2022? 🤦🏻‍♂️

Am I the only one that finishes the day by leaving the following in whatever code files I was working on...

That feeling when you pick up a task, have a solution within a day, second guess yourself when it comes to putting up a PR, spend a month trying to figure out the “real” issue…then realise your first instinct was probably correct 🙈 #softwareengineering #DeveloperProblems

It's amazing how an extremely minor software change can cause unforeseen issues...

Spent 10+ hours over the last few days tracking down a bizarre I2C issue that appeared seemingly out of nowhere on a project. Assumed it was due to a tweak I made in a PoE driver that was on that I2C bus. But, turned out to be due to forgetting to initialize a struct to a known state in what I thought was an unrelated driver I was rewriting, which caused a pin to be initialized incorrectly. 🤦‍♂️ #DeveloperProblems

Sigh....SOAP API is next on my list #wordpress #developerproblems

That feeling when you think you've fixed an app crash, but can't reproduce the crash to disprove that you've _not_ fixed it!
