Title before edit: I hate programming, why did i choose this field
TL;DR: Stupid mistake, made by hours waste.
Basically, I was extracting date from the SQL db, and it was not displaying. I tried everything, heck I even went to chatgpt, and copilot. Two and half hours of trying every single thing under the sun, you know what was the issue?
SELECT task, status, id FROM mainWorkSpace WHERE user_id = @user_id
I FUCKING FORGOT TO ADD ‘date’ TO THE DAMN QUERY. TWO AND HALF HOURS. I was like, “Ain’t no way.” as I scrolled up to the query and there it was, a slap in the face, and you know what was the fix?
SELECT task, status, date, id FROM mainWorkSpace WHERE user_id = @user_id
Moral of the story, don’t become a programmer, become a professional cat herder instead.
Wow ok chill.
The title of this post was “I hate programming, why did I choose this field”.
I responded suggesting maybe OP isn’t suited to SQL in particular. There are plenty of other languages to learn that they might pick up quicker if they are struggling with SELECTs.
Yeah, being called out and unnecessarily put to task is unpleasant, isn’t it?
The irony is spectacular.
Have a nice day.
Completely put to task, yep really got me there. I will never see the world in the same way again.
Also, I don’t think you understand what irony means.
You too.
Nice edit, this wasn’t the original message lol.
You were unnecessarily rude and you know it.
My original message was “Wow ok chill.” then elaborated to clarify.
Where I’m from people are way ruder than anything I said here so perhaps I misjudged the room. However, calling it out seems to have had the desired response as since posting OP went and apologised for his anger.
I in turn apologise for my rudeness to them.
