Time-handling Memes

The eternal time bomb of software development strikes again! This poor developer just "fixed" the tests broken by Daylight Savings Time by subtracting an hour from the expected results. Meanwhile, his hippie colleague is horrified because the actual solution was converting everything to UTC and making the tests timezone-aware. This is the coding equivalent of putting duct tape on a leaking nuclear reactor. Sure, the tests pass today, but in six months when DST changes again? Complete meltdown. The developer will be long gone, leaving behind a legacy of technical debt and confused Stack Overflow questions.
