Spent 8 hours fixing a typo in a contract clause that made me lose a $1,200 project in Phoenix last Wednesday
Honestly, I triple checked everything except the fine print and that one missing word cost me the whole deal, has anyone else had a tiny mistake snowball into a total disaster like that?

Oh man, that is brutal. I once lost a whole weekend over a missing comma.

A single comma cost you a weekend? That sounds like a bigger issue with how you test your code than the comma itself. You should have caught that in the first five minutes.

Yeah but once you've stared at that comma for two hours you start questioning reality.
