Ah, the infamous "Ostrich Algorithm" – the unspoken backbone of production code everywhere! When asked how they fixed a bug, the developer proudly admits they just... ignored it. Why waste precious hours hunting down an edge case that happens once in a blue moon when you could be creating exciting new bugs instead? It's not laziness, it's "cost-effectiveness" – the corporate-approved term for "I'll let future me (or some poor junior dev) deal with it." The best part? It's actually documented in computer science, giving us the perfect excuse to pretend our technical debt is actually a legitimate strategy!
