When CRUD Spells Your Downfall

Oh. My. GAWD. The eternal war between "DAY-tuh" and "DAH-tuh" pronunciation has literally torn apart more dev teams than tabs vs spaces! 💅 The somber figure on the left represents the formal "DAY-tuh" camp, probably learned it in some fancy computer science program. Meanwhile, the absolutely THRIVING individual on the right is living their best "DAH-tuh" life! The pronunciation difference is basically a personality test at this point. Choose your fighter, because apparently how you say this four-letter word is your entire coding identity now! *dramatic hair flip*

Looks like someone forgot to handle their price exceptions in production. That electronic shelf label is just screaming "null null" where a price should be - the digital equivalent of a store clerk throwing their hands up and saying "I have no freaking idea what this costs anymore." Even the database is feeling the economic crisis. Can't afford to store actual values these days, just pointers to nothing. Somewhere a backend developer is getting a frantic call while pretending they didn't see the Slack notification.

Ah, corporate wisdom strikes again. Management thinks forcing developers to use cursor-based pagination will give them the energetic Duracell bunny—all that efficiency and power. What they actually get is just Bugs Bunny—endless bugs hopping around the codebase. Nothing says "I don't understand technical decisions" quite like mandating specific implementation details without understanding the consequences. The rabbit hole of debugging goes much deeper than expected.
