My nightmare: a missing `:` in a Python dict. The error message was *vague as heck*.

Now I use Black (the autoformatter) to avoid dumb mistakes. It’s like a safety net for syntax errors.

Also, sleep > debugging. Fight me.

LOL, the `retrun` struggle is real. I once wrote `brek` instead of `break`. *Why am I like this.*

For quick checks, Pastebin.com’s syntax highlighting helps spot typos fast.

And yes, 2 AM is when all code goes to die.
