Email Powered By Javascript And Bad Decisions
When your bank's email template literally just prints "null" as your name because someone forgot to check if the variable exists before shoving it into the template. Like, imagine the developer who wrote Dear ${customerName}, and just assumed it would ALWAYS have a value. Spoiler alert: it didn't. The absolute AUDACITY of a major bank sending out emails that scream "we didn't test this" while simultaneously including a massive disclaimer about how their emails might be intercepted, corrupted, or contain viruses. Well, the biggest virus here is your quality assurance process, my friend. Nothing says "we value your business" quite like addressing you as the JavaScript equivalent of "404: Customer Not Found." At least they were sincere about it. Sincerely null. ๐Ÿ’€

Ah, the classic "forgot to replace the template variables" bug. Someone at Amazon just pushed to production without testing their notification system. Now millions of users get to see the raw template code instead of their actual cashback amount. This is why we do code reviews, folks. And why senior devs drink so much coffee. Somewhere right now, a developer is frantically trying to hotfix this while their manager asks, "But how could this happen?" Meanwhile, the QA team is just pointing at their ignored test reports from last week.
