Defect Is A Defect

The eternal developer obsession with refactoring code that has zero practical benefits! The bearded dev isn't refactoring for performance, security, or even browser compatibility—he's doing it because messy code literally follows him like a ghost, haunting every waking moment of his existence. That feeling when you're showering and suddenly remember that nested if-statement monstrosity you wrote six months ago? Pure psychological torture. No wonder we're willing to spend hours "improving" perfectly functional code just to exorcise those code demons from our brains.

Oh honey, the AUDACITY of this meme! 💀 The left is all of us entering the coding world with dreams of becoming tech billionaires, creating the next Facebook from our bedrooms while sipping fancy lattes. The right? That's reality hitting harder than a production bug at 4:59 PM on Friday! Five years of staring at a screen, debugging other people's nightmarish code, and having existential crises over missing semicolons will transform ANYONE from perky optimist to dead-eyed zombie. The only relationship that lasted those five years was the one with your IDE—and even THAT keeps threatening to leave you for someone who actually reads documentation!

Content ?php header ("Content-type: texthtml; charsetutf-8"); This is a warning to any poor soul who may have to deal with this code. I took over this criminal piece of chaos from a monkey named Joel who I assume had been given a typewriter by Mephistopheles himself. For reasons I have yet been unable to fathom, he decided to patch together this thing using a BaseX setup hardwired into an unfixably broken Manjaro VM, queried by a handwritten plate of uncommented PHP spaghetti fit to feed an army of people with a serious death wish, without any framework or CMS. The very long BaseX script, very long PHP presenter and very long XSLT stylesheet mostly perform the same heuristic document structuring for different components and are supposed to produce compatible results, but I bet they have mismatches somewhere. Since Prof. T just wanted a few small functional enhancements, I decided to just patch it and keep the general setup. Unless you were hired to correct some spelling mistakes, DO NOT FOLLOW IN MY STEPS. Putting up with this simulation of how a goldfish would design a system has literally given me CLINICAL DEPRESSION. This is not an exaggeration, I am writing this after a prolonged medical therapy - mostly successful, thanks for asking, but not fun. I wouldn't wish this code on anybody who isn't a manager at Oracle or Facebook, and therefore give you this sincere advice: Nuke this. Take the XSLT if you must, and then nuke the app and recreate it in Django or whatever works for you. I would do it myself, but I risked a relapse simply by opening this file again to write this comment. Dear brother or sister, I wish you all the luck and strength in the world and hope it will be enough. Farewell. error reporting(E ALL); ini set ("display errors", true); print('?yml version"1.0" encoding"UTF.8" 2' "p"):?
