I Just Wanted To Center A Button...

Someone tried to create a radio button UI in real life but completely missed the point. Radio buttons are supposed to be mutually exclusive—you can only select one option. But they forgot to actually implement the selection functionality! It's like shipping code without the onClick handler. This is what happens when product managers say "make it look exactly like the mockup" without understanding the underlying functionality.

THE ETERNAL CYCLE OF SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT TORTURE! 😩 First panel: Developer is FORCED to endure the soul-crushing whining of customers about app performance. Second panel: Developer, dead inside, mutters "ok" while contemplating career changes. Third panel: MIRACLE HAPPENS! Developer optimizes code by 200% and briefly experiences joy! Fourth panel: Management IMMEDIATELY ruins everything - "Great, now let's cram in more features until it's slow again!" And the cycle of suffering continues FOREVER! 💀

Oh look, another UI/UX "improvement" that strips away all useful details! Left: Earth with its messy continents, textures, and actual information. Right: The designer's "clean" version—a minimalist gradient sphere that tells you absolutely nothing but looks "modern." This is basically what happens when the design team gets too much power in a sprint planning meeting. "Users don't need to see countries, that's information overload! Let's simplify!" Next update: continents will be available as a premium subscription feature.

Content det ic even (num: Addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. These are the four mathematical operations I was taught during my childhood education, and their operators, t; , are very familiar. I was not taught , the modulus operator, which I recently discovered can be quite useful and interesting in its own right. The modulus operator, written in most programming languages as or mod, performs what is known as the modulo operation. You next response, understandably, might be, "That doesn't clarify anything," so let's take a closer look: The modulus operator - or more precisely, the modulo operation - is a way to determine the remainder of a division operation. Instead of returning the result of the division, the modulo operation returns the whole number remainder. Some examples may help illustrate this, as it's not necessarily intuitive the first time you encounter it: 5 1 0 5 divided by 1 equals 5, with a remainder of 0 5 2 1 5 divided by 2 equals 2, with a remainder of 1 It may be helpful to think back to your early math lessons, before you learned fractions and decimals. Mathematics with whole numbers behaves differently - when dividing numbers that aren't even multiples, there's always some amount left over. That remainder is what the modulo operation returns. If this seems strange, boring, or not particularly useful, bear with me a bit longer - or just skip ahead to the use cases. The Modulo Operation Expressed As a Formula As one final means of explication, for those more mathematically inclined, here's a formula that describes the modulo operation: a - (n floor (an)) By substituting values, we can see how the modulo operation works in practice: 100 7 2 100, n 7 100 - (7 floor (1007)) 2 If you don't find the formula helpful, don't worry - I didn't either at first Some people find this abstract representation helps deepen or clarify their understanding of the operation, but you don't need to know it A final note here - if you're wondering how the modulo operation functions with negative numbers or decimals, that's a bit outside the scope of this article. For our purposes here, we'll only be dealing with positive integers. return num 2
