Security Experts Hate This One Simple Trick

Security experts: "Use complex passwords, rotate them regularly, never store them in plaintext." Meanwhile, some server admin with their passwords.txt file accessible via direct URL, using "admin" as both username and password: "I'm something of a security expert myself." The tabs open in the background (phpMyAdmin, Cloud Shell, etc.) really complete the masterpiece of digital negligence. Chef's kiss to whoever set up this security nightmare.

Ah, HTTP status code humor. The perfect intersection of web development and dad jokes. 404 is "not found" but somehow found its way to the polls, while 403 is "forbidden" from voting. The pun is so bad it deserves its own stack trace. This is what happens when developers are allowed to make jokes outside of code comments. At least no one mentioned 418 - I'm a teapot. That would've really stirred things up.
