And don't forget RTFM

Post funny things about programming here! (Or just rant about your favourite programming language.)
Rolling up and getting started is a great way to find some really sloppy ways to do some initially very fascinating tricks. Like, its not a terrible idea on its face.
But there's a huge difference between learning some javascript tricks or python commands to macro with and professionally designing a full stack. Really depends on what you're trying to accomplish.
Best thing in the world is a fresh faced young developer who is eager to learn everything you put in front of them. Worst thing in the world is someone who only half-knows how to code but thinks they can do a proper mobile app from first principles. Every time I see a mile of copypasta spaghetti code sitting inside a single oversized Main() function, I die inside.
