You know something's wrong when your code compiles on the first try. Either you've ascended to a higher plane of existence, or you're about to discover a runtime error so catastrophic it'll make you wish for the comfort of syntax errors. That moment of "inner peace" lasts exactly 3 seconds before the paranoia kicks in and you start frantically checking if you accidentally commented out half your codebase. Spoiler: it runs perfectly, which means it's definitely cursed.

You're in the zone, fingers flying across the keyboard at superhuman speed, crafting what you're absolutely certain is going to be the most elegant solution ever written. Then your IDE starts having an absolute meltdown, throwing red squiggly lines everywhere like confetti at a syntax error party. Every incomplete variable declaration, every missing semicolon, every unclosed bracket is screaming at you simultaneously. But here's the thing: you KNOW where you're going with this. You've got the entire architecture mapped out in your head. That variable you're using? You're literally about to declare it three lines down. That function call? The implementation is coming right after you finish this thought. Your IDE just needs to chill and trust the process. It's like trying to write a sentence while someone keeps interrupting you after every word to tell you it's grammatically incorrect. Yes, I KNOW it doesn't compile yet, I'm not done! The real power move is completely ignoring that error count climbing into double digits while you maintain your flow state.
