    Made a lot of changes to a working application to make it better without using any source control... And completely fucked it up. It was a cool personal project. Didn't get any time and motivation to fix it after that... Still remains abandoned.
    I still regret being so unbelievably stupid and over confident.

    Nothing that major but I had two copies of an HTML file: one on a school server and one my local machine desktop. I opened the desktop one in chrome and the server one in VS. Took me 10 minutes to figure out why the changes in VS weren't appearing in chrome. As soon as I called the professor over to see if he could help me, I realized I'm stupid as fuck and figured it out. He just laughed and shook his head.

    For my first internship, I had to write a simple function using an existing framework. A variable defined in the framework had a typo, so I did a massive refactor and pushed to master.

    I learned a lot that day.
