Plot twist: The code is written in Whitespace
FFS….
I hate whitespace so fucking much. Why must i deal with yaml professionally
All those closing brackets and commas in json suck too. And XML is a fucking waste of time. I’ll take writing yaml any day.
Best laugh of the day so far.
Laughed too loud, scared the wildlife outside.
PS, just gotta look at lines above. Maybe rainbow delimiters can help.
That happens all the time with Python. It often shows me errors in the imported modules, which are easily confused with my own code if I’m tired and don’t read the message properly.
how’s that the same thing as in the picture?
Here it is in greentext form:
>"error on line 42" >look inside >no code on line 42 mfw python throws errors about other peoples codePython stack traces give you all files involved in the error, with their lines. I don’t know what you’re talking about
hence the
which are easily confused with my own code if I’m tired and don’t read the message properly.
I’ve had negative line number errors in an RPA program before. That one really caught me off guard.
This happens all the time with TypeScript. The transpiled JS that actually runs will naturally have different line numbers than the TS you wrote!
To be fair, the reported line number is usually close enough that I can find the issue without much trouble.
It’s not my favorite back end language, but it’s what everyone on my team knows…
This is what source maps are for. With the right tools you can debug the original source instead of the minified version.
Exactly.
When your #includes get flattened before compiling: “Error on line 1103” (file is 190 lines long)
Sounds like my time compiling autoit code. Fuck I hated that
}
You scare me!
It’s always a semicolon or parentheses.
