Cognitive Biases in Programming

1. Hyperbolic Discounting: Going for an immediate payoff instead of a delayed larger one
2. IKEA Effect: Overvaluing your own solutions to a problem, and thus in contrast undervalue other solutions
3. Premature Optimization: Optimizing before you know that you need to
4. Planning Fallacy: Optimistically underestimating the time required to complete a task
5. Recency Bias: Placing higher value on recent events than ones that occurred further in the past
