Someone just reinvented the equality operator with extra steps. The ifBothCorrect function literally just checks if two values are equal, but instead of using === or == , they wrote an entire function that assigns them to variables, compares them, and returns true or false. It's like using a forklift to pick up a pencil. But wait, there's more! The authentication logic fetches ALL usernames and ALL passwords from the database, then loops through them in nested foreach loops to validate credentials. That's O(n²) complexity for what should be a single database query. Your database is crying. Your security team is crying. I'm crying. The cherry on top? They're storing passwords in plain text (look at that getAllPasswords() call). This code is a security audit's final boss. It's so beautifully terrible that it almost feels like performance art.

SQLite's approach to data types is... let's call it "flexible." While most databases have proper boolean types, SQLite just shrugs and goes "eh, store it as an integer: 0 or 1." Want a true/false? Too bad, you're getting 0/1. Want to be fancy and store "true" as text? Sure, why not. SQLite doesn't judge. The joke here is that if SQLite actually had native boolean support like a civilized database, we'd apparently be living in a futuristic utopia with flying cars and chrome buildings. Because nothing says "technological advancement" quite like proper data type implementation. Developers have been working around this quirk for decades, writing helper functions and ORMs that pretend booleans exist. It's like SQLite is that one friend who refuses to get a smartphone in 2024 and everyone just... deals with it.

Nothing teaches you like a production server on fire at 2 AM. That tiny stack of theory books? That's your CS degree. The practice pile? That's your first year on the job. But that towering monument of green books? That's the knowledge you've gained by accidentally dropping the production database, pushing to main on Friday, or forgetting that arrays start at zero for the 500th time. The most valuable developer skills aren't taught in bootcamps—they're forged in the flames of catastrophic failure. My resume says "10 years of experience" but it should really say "10 years of increasingly spectacular mistakes."
