The Semicolon Uncertainty Principle

The eternal semicolon dilemma — that tiny punctuation mark that somehow manages to break your entire codebase when misplaced. It's like playing Russian roulette with your compiler every time you hit that key. Is it needed here? Will it cause chaos there? Nobody knows! The compiler just sits there judging your life choices while you frantically Google "do I need a semicolon after a function declaration in JavaScript" for the 500th time. The confidence of people who claim they understand semicolon rules perfectly is the greatest fiction in programming.
