The Forbidden Button Pattern

ui-design-memes, dark-patterns-memes, lazy-coding-memes, reverse-psychology-memes, user-experience-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

The ultimate reverse psychology UI pattern! Some brilliant dev created buttons that say "Please don't touch this" right next to "Click here to purchase" – essentially guaranteeing everyone will press the forbidden button. It's the digital equivalent of putting a big red button labeled "DO NOT PRESS" in front of curious humans. The implementation is so beautifully lazy yet effective that it deserves a spot in the Hall of Fame for Malicious Compliance. The dev clearly understood that humans are hardwired to do exactly what they're told not to do. Probably knocked this out 5 minutes before the deadline while muttering "ship it and let QA deal with it."

The Magic Number Of Zeroes

JavaScript's parseInt() function is like that one coworker who ignores all your emails until you add exactly seven zeroes after the decimal point. The function stubbornly returns 0 for every decimal value, until suddenly—at 0.0000005—it decides "Oh, I see a 5 now!" and returns 5. It's like watching someone squint harder and harder at tiny text until they finally give up and just read whatever letter they think they see. The floating point precision gods have spoken, and they've chosen chaos.
