Another Smart Move

Another Smart Move
Ah yes, the presidential decree of bad programming practices. Nothing says "Make Software Great Again" like starting arrays at 1 (a crime in most programming languages), using only global variables (the radioactive waste of code), and deploying untested code straight to production on a Friday (the ultimate "I hate my weekend" power move). It's basically an executive order to create job security through chaos. Ten years of debugging later, you'll still be finding remnants of this administration in your codebase.

Oh Wait It Is My Code

Oh Wait It Is My Code
The classic programmer amnesia syndrome in full display! Nothing quite like the journey from "this code is garbage" to "oh wait, I wrote this masterpiece" in 0.5 seconds flat. That moment of horrified judgment—complaining about global variables and try-catch blocks spanning miles—only to realize you're critiquing your own digital fingerprints. The cognitive dissonance of immediately pivoting to "actually, the logic isn't that bad" is pure self-preservation at work. It's like finding an old diary entry and thinking "who wrote this nonsense?" before recognizing your own handwriting. The mental gymnastics we perform to protect our fragile programmer egos deserve an Olympic medal.

Global Variable Is Laughing

Global Variable Is Laughing
The naive local variable, confined to its little code block kingdom between those curly braces, dares to ask about the mysterious lands beyond. Meanwhile, the compiler, essentially the Mufasa of the programming world, smugly reminds the local variable of its pathetic existence limitations. It's the perfect metaphor for scope in programming - local variables are like the homebodies who never leave their neighborhood, while global variables are out there living their best lives, accessible from anywhere. Sure, global variables might cause chaos and unexpected behavior, but at least they're not trapped in scope prison!
