@@Mgl1206 the most infuriating one I have heard of (not sure if I believe this one) was caused by differences in how the program handled the keyboard interface, short version is that it had multiple distinct inputs that all displayed identically and all were input by the same keyboard commands, but were very much not being processed the same, to make matters even worse which keyboard+interface+etc you were using caused it to record different inputs from identical user input and any editing you did while trying to figure things out essentially randomized which input was attached to which identical readout _and_ any time you put it through any kind of storage medium outside of the environment (copy-paste while working, send a copy to a group partner, you get the idea) it would semi-randomly flip between these values. the most common one I hear about is that the teacher is using a different version of the program that the students do not actually have access to, you'd think that would be rare but apparently it's not all that uncommon for teachers to be running different versions of things from the class and coursework (and more importantly the attached information resources) to be some hodgepodge of various versions. kinda like that one time you actually tried reading the instructions when setting up some new electronics and it was telling you to plug parts you don't have into slots that do not match those parts and do not exist on the physical object all while referencing a diagram that doesn't match the impossible instructions _or_ the actual object...though to be fair that's not actually their fault: it's actually really hard for them to push a change in that paperwork through bureaucracy and it has to be changed by-section but the physical object changes any time the parts supply chain shifts around a bit, you'd need to update those instructions every couple shipments but need months to make a change. that's why you'll often find mismatched diagrams in the different language sections.
@evernewb2073 I encounter a similar issue constantly where I work. Different systems coding whitespace characters differently, and the compiler throws a fit if the wrong one is used. We share code and query parameter lists a lot via copy-paste, so it ends up creating a huge headache, especially when it passes testing, but then fails in the production deployment after spending 10 minutes getting approvals.

you'd think that second story is making stuff up but it's really not. especially not if this poor bastard is in school since according to every single person I know who has gone through any form of computer science degree coding or otherwise roughly half the time you're trying to run that program _in the wrong god damned environment_ and do not have access to the environment it will be ran in by the teacher. it's a bit like if your spanish teacher decides they are going to grade everything in portugese...except that wouldn't create exponentially compounding errors or cause your assignment+instructions+informationresources to all be invalid
Yeah... Coding for university work is, at the best of times, akin to esoteric knowledge and at the worst of times, it's an Eldritch Abomination that hurts your mind to even be in the presence of, that tries to melt your fucking brain out of every available orifice when you try to comprehend what in the ever loving fuck is going wrong m

Yes in fact I can.
Sounds like my man in the second story needs a rubber duck

That second story felt like a personal attack
Maybe...maybe it was? 😳
Wait... Is the first one a review of No Man's Sky? 🤣😂🤣
🤣 that would explain a lot
but it has been improved thankfully
I enjoyed the game. I would definitely play again.
Though, I also agree that humanity is a "real ass".
Kind of borderline blasphemy aside, the first story was interesting
Angry Programming is SO accurate. The author MUST have a good deal of first hand experience about programming.
I studied Network Administration but I had to take some coding courses as part of the curriculum. I felt that last story right down to my soul 😂
That second story waaaaayyyy too relatable
1st story; make a new game+ from false vacuum decay with completely different variables.
2nd story; good old college time.
