My algebra teacher in college did the first mistake. I still remember it after 21 years: 1. She was reducing some formula, and got it down to cos(a - 0), which is obviously cos(a). The problem is, her cheat sheet had the solution as sin(a).

I started web programming using PHP back in 2000, but quickly moved to Python a couple of years later and never looked back. That is, until I joined FB this year as a data engineer. Programming in PHP with Hack/XHP is awesome.
