When Fixing "One More Bug" Takes A Lifetime

The trillion-dollar company that makes privacy its selling point just handed out their source code like it's free candy at a tech conference. Source maps in production is the digital equivalent of leaving your house keys under the doormat with a neon sign pointing to them. Some developer is getting a strongly worded Slack message right about now. For the uninitiated: source maps are files that link minified/compiled code back to the original source, meant for debugging but absolutely not for showing your competitors how your app works. It's like publishing your diary but forgetting to tear out the pages where you wrote down all your secrets.

DARLING, FEAST YOUR EYES on the masterpiece of mediocrity that is modern development! 💅 That bird drawing starts all proper and dignified, then SPIRALS into absolute CHAOS before somehow—SOMEHOW—still managing to fly! Just like that nightmare codebase you've been nursing along since 2018! Sure, your variables are named 'asdf' and 'temp2Final_REALFINAL', there are 47 nested if-statements, and you've commented "DO NOT TOUCH OR EVERYTHING EXPLODES," but guess what? IT WORKS! And in this economy, that's basically a standing ovation! *dramatically faints onto keyboard*
