Running an UPDATE without a WHERE clause on production. The digital equivalent of nuking your entire city because one building had a broken window. Every single row in that table just got the same value, which in this case means everyone's now an admin. The intern's LinkedIn status just changed to "Open to Work" and the DBA is already reaching for the backup tapes. Fun fact: This is why database transactions have a rollback feature, though something tells me this particular update was already committed with the confidence of someone who's never made a mistake before.
