It's an epidemic parents!

Ah, the beautiful absurdity of JavaScript! The expression (() => {})() transforms into {} followed by () and a semicolon. It's literally an immediately invoked function expression (IIFE) that returns an empty object, which then gets treated like a function call, followed by a completely disconnected semicolon. The beauty here? This syntactically valid gibberish does absolutely nothing useful. It's like building an elaborate Rube Goldberg machine that just turns itself off. Peak JavaScript moment where you can write code that's simultaneously correct and completely pointless. No wonder the poor soul is questioning their reality!

Sleeping peacefully until your brain jolts you awake at 3:27 AM because you realized you used = instead of == in that authentication code. That single equals sign just gave admin access to literally everyone. Sweet dreams! Nothing quite like the cold sweat of realizing you've accidentally created the world's most generous authorization system. The fix takes 2 seconds but the existential dread lasts forever.

JavaScript's equality comparison is like that one friend who can't decide what they want for dinner. The console shows NaN === NaN returning false because in JS, each NaN is its own special snowflake. Two identical-looking "not a number" values? Nope, completely different according to JavaScript! The corporate "spot the difference" meme perfectly captures the absurdity - there's literally no difference between the two NaN cards, yet JavaScript insists they're not the same. It's the programming equivalent of gaslighting. Next time someone asks why developers drink, just show them this.

Ah, the eternal C/C++ programmer's dream - a world where you don't have to choose between sizeof(array) and sizeof(array[0]) just to get the damn array length. Meanwhile, JavaScript devs are smugly using .length while we're over here doing division like it's 1972. The utopian future depicted isn't flying cars - it's sensible array APIs that don't decay into pointers the moment you sneeze on them. Ten thousand years of programming evolution and we're still manually calculating element counts like cavemen with abacuses.
