When debugging

Content You finally find the source of the bug! It's a variable labelled "temp" temp was committed into the code 4 years ago and was never removed Several important calculations seem to rely on temp now None of this is documented anywhere

The eternal battle between programming languages in one perfect sumo match! The massive C and C++ community stands like an immovable mountain of legacy code and performance, while tiny Rust enthusiasts desperately try to push them over with their memory safety arguments. It's like watching your little cousin try to convince your stubborn uncle that his 40-year-old way of doing things might have some flaws. "But... but... we prevent segmentation faults at compile time!" Yeah, good luck with that, kiddo. The C/C++ devs just pat them on the head while continuing to manually manage memory like it's 1972.

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 PH 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 PH 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.
