(How to trigger programmers (and make them irrationally angry)
Probably not a good title to seek upvotes. If it does get upvotes, more programmers get share in your pain 😅

Replace a semicolon (;) with a Greek Question mark (;), provided they're working in a language that uses semicolons at the end of every line, and their IDE doesn't highlight the difference (which some do now)
Fun fact, Rust has a special error message for this:
Unicode character ';' (Greek Question Mark) looks like a semicolon, but it is not.
It also detects other potentially confusing Unicode characters, like the division slash which looks like
/.Replace all spaces with the unicode non-breaking space that looks the same.
Although I know at least some language servers will detect this and mark it as an error, lol.
