When You Don't Fix The Error Code On Friday

Content robin dreamsofsloth 1d the first thing our new hire did was fix a bug that's been bugging him forever as a user prior to joining. he then breathed a sigh of relief and submitted his two weeks' notice. wtf?? 9 67 17 822 4,373 Show this thread

OH. MY. GOD. Who wrote this abomination?! 😱 The function isEven(x) is literally comparing a number to the STRING "even"?! The absolute AUDACITY! Instead of doing basic math like x % 2 == 0 , some chaotic evil developer decided to check if a number equals the word "even"! This is the coding equivalent of using a chainsaw to spread butter. I can't even begin to process the mental gymnastics required to create this monstrosity. And the worst part? Someone, somewhere is probably using this in production RIGHT NOW. 💀

Ah, the ancient hieroglyphics of code written before the holiday break. You stare at it like an archaeologist trying to decipher a dead language. "Who wrote this?" you wonder, before checking git blame and realizing it was you... three weeks ago. The coffee isn't strong enough for this level of amnesia. Your brain has completely purged all context about what the hell you were thinking when you wrote that nested ternary operator. Just approve it and type "LGTM" (Looks Good To Me), because honestly, who even remembers how this codebase works anymore?

The eternal developer paradox: starts with "just a quick fix" at 4 AM, ends with a catastrophic codebase massacre. Those bloodshot eyes tell the whole story—the ChatGPT-fueled coding frenzy that began with noble intentions but spiraled into digital chaos. The cat watching through the window is basically your sanity waving goodbye while you descend into madness one prompt at a time. The real horror isn't the bugs—it's the realization you'll have to explain this to your team tomorrow.

This programmer just discovered the joy of integer overflow in real life! The odometer reads "P 181181" but they're advertising it as just 45km. Classic programmer move—technically it's just 45km... after rolling over from 999,999! It's like when your unit tests pass because you didn't account for edge cases. The authorities might call it "fraud," but programmers call it "unexpected feature behavior." Next time try using a uint64 for your odometer, buddy!
