Showerthought: I spent 3 hours deciding between Python and JavaScript for my first project.

I picked Python to make a simple text game, but got stuck because I kept using semicolons out of habit from my old C class. Anyone else have a 'language muscle memory' problem when starting out?

Ever notice how your hands remember old routines better than your brain does? I kept trying to turn off my friend's car with a phantom key for weeks after I got push button start. Your fingers just get stuck in those old grooves.

Oh my gosh YES! I still reach for the gear shift in my new car even though it's just a little dial now.
