"Replace a semicolon (;) with a greek question mark (;) in your friend's JavaScript and watch them pull their hair out" - @benbjohnson
@abt_programming @snipeyhead @benbjohnson Step 2: Make semicolon key into macro that is greek question mark
@abt_programming @benbjohnson then it's not a friend anymore
@abt_programming @benbjohnson hahaha this is brilliant
Oh, dev pranks! MT @abt_programming via @mtravi: Replace semicolon (;) w/ greek question mark (;) in friend's JS; watch them pull hair out
@abt_programming @benbjohnson The curse of strict mode.
@abt_programming @benbjohnson @NFGoetz This is about the most evil thing I've ever heard.

@abt_programming @benbjohnson School dejavu, my lab mate changed int call in my asm code. Took some time to find why PC reboot on exec.
@abt_programming @snipeyhead @benbjohnson That's some cold shit.
@abt_programming @lochieaxon @benbjohnson just another reason to lint your code :)
@abt_programming @benbjohnson @digitalkaoz Doesn't seem to do much with proper tooling (e.g. IDEA/gulp/browserify).
@abt_programming @matthieu_me @benbjohnson Yeah, or a burmese colon: wintranslation.com/2010/08/12/dtp…
@abt_programming @benbjohnson @_oxytocin With @jetbrains products it is not a big deal to find the joke
@abt_programming @spooner_web @benbjohnson now just another reason to get rid of the semicolons in JS;)
@abt_programming @johnwallaby @benbjohnson Wow, that's diabolical!
