Let's Make Bugs Illegal
Ah, Switzerland—where they legislated against integer overflows before they legislated against bugs. The meme shows an actual Swiss railway regulation forbidding trains with exactly 256 axles because the axle counter would reset to zero, essentially making the train invisible to the system. For the uninitiated, 256 (or 2^8) is where an 8-bit unsigned integer maxes out and wraps back to zero. It's like your car odometer hitting 999999 and rolling back to 000000, except this rollover could cause a train collision. Instead of fixing the code, they just banned the edge case. If only we could solve all our debugging nightmares by making them illegal. "Error 404? Straight to jail."
