Bad Computing

So someone decided to implement functional programming in JavaScript by... literally just calling functions recursively and pretending they're doing Haskell. The isEven function checks if a number equals zero (true) or one (false), then recursively calls isOdd with n-1. The isOdd function just... calls isEven back. This is the programming equivalent of asking your roommate if they're hungry, and they respond by asking if YOU'RE hungry, and this continues until someone starves or the call stack explodes. Instead of using the modulo operator like a normal human being ( n % 2 === 0 ), this genius decided to torture the JavaScript engine with mutual recursion. The irony? Haskell would actually handle this elegantly with tail call optimization. JavaScript? It'll blow up your stack faster than you can say "Maximum call stack size exceeded." So yeah, "long live JavaScript" indeed—until you try to check if 10000 is even.

When the backend dev says "I'll handle the UI this time" and delivers a postal truck parked in a circular water feature. Function over form at its finest! The backend mindset is fully operational here—technically it works, has an API (actual physical interface), and meets all the requirements in the spec. No CSS animations needed, just raw utility with zero regard for user experience. Bonus points for the vehicle ID being formatted like a database primary key (CP20009). Ship it!

You know those innocent questions society says you should never ask? Yeah, well programmers have their own forbidden territory, and it's asking them to explain code they wrote three weeks ago after coming back from vacation. The sheer HORROR on that programmer's face says it all—like they're staring into the abyss of their own spaghetti code, wondering "who wrote this garbage?" only to realize... it was them. Past-you was apparently feeling chaotic and left zero comments, variable names like 'x1' and 'temp2', and logic so convoluted it would make a pretzel jealous. Coming back to your own code after a break is basically archaeological excavation, except instead of discovering ancient civilizations, you're discovering your own crimes against readability.
