I just started to learning React and I keep type status instead of state.
// App.js with React
state = {something: 'whatever'}
vs
$ git status
I also had a hard time with self vs this when I was studying Python and JavaScript at the same time, as well as a.length vs len(a). I heard that people using R are experiencing a similar thing.
What is yours?

making a typo in for loops: arr.lenght instead of arr.length.
This tripped me over more than once. It hasn't happened in ages because of intellisense and a better editor setup but I'm still so focused on it.
I also used to make a similar typo.
Yes, surely editors are helpful. Never want to go back to Notepad++.
I can't type an 'in' ending with adding a 'g'. I do it constantly.
Too many years of it now to break the habbit. But I have found I do it less in programming than in other forms of writing. Something about the way the braing(!) is wired while coding...
lol this is interesting... There might be just less -in words in coding. Thanks for sharing yours.
Their is no worse typo, in my opinion, then those using there/their/they're wrong.
You just made me go through reading my post again to make sure I didn't make that typo.
Haha sorry. It was supposed to be funny, because I intentionally used the wrong one in my reply 😊
Don't worry it was funny🤣, even myself doing that was also funny.

I also keep doing it in Python... lol
I always type "food" instead of "good", especially when it's close to lunch break
After the typo your lunch must be food good. 😝
This one gets me every time.
lol I was even having a hard time finding what you are talking about.
