I must admit that I still sometimes fail to read some java errors out of pure laziness 😂

Programming Tip 💡

Learn to read code. You’ll be doing a lot more reading than writing most of the time.

Learn to read errors and stack traces as well. They're trying to help you figure out what went wrong. Don't ignore them
