Can Still Write Code

You know a developer's code quality has reached questionable territory when you can't tell if they're building the next big thing or just accidentally polluting the global namespace. "Hello Universe" instead of the traditional "Hello World" screams one of two things: either this person has grand visions of intergalactic-scale applications, or they've got variables leaking into scopes they have no business being in. Scope creep in project management means your features are spiraling out of control. Scope creep in programming means your variables are showing up in places like uninvited guests at a party. The Philosoraptor here is doing what we all do during code review—wondering if that ambitious naming convention is intentional genius or just a red flag that someone doesn't understand lexical scoping. Either way, "Hello Universe" definitely suggests someone's `var` declarations are living their best uncontained life.
