Clock But We Saved Money By Having The New Junior Dev Implement Daylight Savings Time Support At The Last Minute
OH. MY. GOD. This is what happens when management decides that handling time zones is just a "small feature" that can be assigned to someone who still thinks "debugging" means removing insects from their keyboard! 😱 The poor junior dev clearly had a complete meltdown and just threw in a "13" because WHAT EVEN IS TIME ANYMORE when you're trying to implement daylight savings at 11:59 PM the night before the deadline! That extra hour had to go SOMEWHERE, right?! The clock is basically screaming "help me, I've been coded by someone who thinks Unix timestamp is a fashion statement!" And this, friends, is why date/time libraries exist. Because otherwise you end up with abominations that make even seasoned developers wake up in cold sweats.

What Drove You To Madness?
The asylum of programming sins is now accepting new patients! Left to right, we have the poor soul who thought regex was a sensible XML parsing solution (narrator: it wasn't), the delusional dev who reinvented the wheel with a custom date/time library (because clearly, humanity hasn't solved that problem in the last 50 years), and finally—the pièce de résistance—the screaming maniac who blindly copy-pasted AI-generated "fixes" straight into production. The padded walls of this code asylum are the only things keeping these developers from harming themselves or others with more terrible technical decisions.
