Using spaces instead of tabs. You should always, always use tabs, not spaces. 2. Using tabs instead of spaces. You should always, always use spaces, not tabs. 3. Not using auto-formatting. Forget all that tabsspaces rubbish, what's wrong with you - auto-format your code and then people won't have to look at vour weird ideas about brackets and spaces. 4. Using IDEs, which have features such as auto-formatting and nicely- coloured buttons. All code should be written in vi or Emacs, thus ensuring the purity of the programming experience. 5. Not using IDEs. No-one wants to pay for all the time it's going to take you to type things that you could have done at the click of a button, or scroll up and down using some ridiculous key combination invoked using LISP. 6. Failing to learn C and C. It's really important to learn the two absolute essential languages. You think Java is just as good? Fine, write me a real- time control system for racing cars in Java and I'll believe you. 7. Learning C or C when you could be using something modern like Java instead.

Ah, the classic "beginner's paralysis." Remember when learning to code was just picking up a book on BASIC or Pascal? Now it's like walking into a pharmacy with 47 different cold medicines when all you wanted was something to stop your runny nose. The tech industry has perfected the art of reinventing the wheel every six months, leaving newbies staring at a buffet of languages and frameworks with absolutely no idea which one won't be obsolete by the time they finish the tutorial. Pro tip from someone who's been coding since punch cards: just pick one and start. The second language is always easier, and the twentieth barely registers as new. Meanwhile, the industry will keep churning out shiny new options like a slot machine that only pays in technical debt.
