Wow... I have the exact same problem!

Before this section, I had absolutely no problems. It was only today, when I started this section, that I noticed I was receiving a strange error whenever I tried to make a new post on localhost:3000.

Hi guys,

Don't worry about that, keep watching and you'll get your answers. You've completely crashed your app during the previous video, and you'll fix it in the next one :D.
