Everything Is A String

JavaScript really said "booleans? never heard of her" and decided that "on" and "off" are perfectly valid boolean values. Because why use true or false like a normal language when you can just... use strings? The document.designMode property is the perfect example of JS's commitment to making type safety engineers cry themselves to sleep. Other languages have strict typing and sensible boolean values. JavaScript has vibes and string literals pretending to be booleans. This is fine.

Coding With Eslint

You declare one class for the first time in your life, feeling proud of yourself, and ESLint immediately comes at you with the fury of a thousand linters. "Declared but never used" it screams, as if you weren't planning to use it in literally the next line. But no, ESLint has already judged you, found you wanting, and sentenced you to squiggly red underlines. It's like having a backseat driver who starts yelling before you even put the car in drive.

When You Post Increment Too Early

Someone updated that drowning counter with count++ instead of ++count and now zero people have drowned wearing lifejackets. Technically correct is the best kind of correct, right? The sign maker probably tested it once, saw it worked, shipped it to production, and went home early. Meanwhile, the lifejacket stat is sitting there at zero like "not my problem." Fun fact: The difference between i++ and ++i has caused more bugs than anyone wants to admit. Post-increment returns the value THEN increments it, while pre-increment does it the other way around. It's the programming equivalent of putting your shoes on before your socks—technically you did both things, just in the wrong order.
