One Bug Fixed, Six More Discovered

Content see your name a better duo stack overflow 2nd monitor And raise you 90 chrome tabs mocking you with 6 year old forum threads describing your exact problem with either no solution, someone linking to another completely unrelated thread asking "did you try this?", or ending in "nvm, I fixed it" 3rd monitor

HONEY, HOLD MY COFFEE! The absolute AUDACITY of returning a 200 OK status while simultaneously screaming "an error occurred" in the response body! 💀 It's like telling someone "Your application is PERFECT!" while secretly setting their server on fire. At least the 500 error has the decency to admit it's having a breakdown, and the 400 acknowledges you messed up. But this? This is pure CHAOS wrapped in a SUCCESS wrapper! Whoever designed this API deserves a special place in developer hell where all their Git commits mysteriously disappear and their IDE randomly changes to Comic Sans.

The ultimate security breach: using localhost as your demo environment. That "127.0.0.1:5500" address is just telling everyone you're developing on your own machine. It's like putting a "this is definitely not where I hide my spare key" sign on your doormat. The "BEFORE CSS" label is just the cherry on top of this unfinished masterpiece. At least no one can hack what they can't stand to look at.

Ever stared at eye tracking data in YAML format? It's like watching your life decisions unfold in real-time, but with more indentation errors. This beautiful mess of coordinates, timestamps, and pupil dilations is exactly what happens when someone takes the "/s" tag too literally. The joke being that YAML's human-readable format completely falls apart when you dump raw numerical data into it. Eight years of engineering experience has taught me one thing: just because you can store something in YAML doesn't mean you should . This is the digital equivalent of storing soup in a colander.

You know that moment when your code crashes, you check the error message, and it's so cryptic and unhelpful that you just... stare at it with pure contempt? Like, thanks for telling me "undefined is not a function" for the 47th time today, but WHICH undefined? WHERE? The angry stare of betrayal when your error message gives you absolutely nothing to work with. You're not reading it anymore, you're just having a silent standoff with your terminal, wondering if intimidation will make it reveal more details. Spoiler: it won't.

That rare, mystical moment when your code executes flawlessly on the first try and you feel like some ancient prophet who's just performed a miracle. No debugging. No stack traces. No cryptic error messages. Just pure, divine execution— as written . You didn't expect it to work, you were already mentally preparing for hours of troubleshooting, and now you're simultaneously elated and suspicious. Is this a trap? Did you accidentally solve the wrong problem? The universe doesn't just hand out working code like this!
