Hear Me Out: The Variable Declarations Need A Try-Catch

DARLING, SWEETIE, HONEY CHILD! 💅 You haven't lived until you've inherited code where some ABSOLUTE PSYCHOPATH decided that variable declarations should be wrapped in try-catch blocks! Like, what kind of trauma led to this?! Are they expecting the variable to PHYSICALLY ASSAULT them during initialization?! "Oh no, my string might throw an exception when I declare it!" PLEASE! This is the coding equivalent of wearing a helmet to eat soup! I CAN'T EVEN! 🙄

Came across this 404 error message on a university website in Cork city, Ireland | web-memes, website-memes, server-memes, errors-memes, loc-memes, error-memes, servers-memes, IT-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

Content While you are here.... In UCC, we don't have 404 errors. We have Peter Flynn (2nd from left) errors. Our first webmaster was the first person to ever break a link on the web, when he moved the location of a webpage on UCC's servers (9th website in the world). without telling Tim Berners-Lee. Suffice it to say, such a change resulted in the need to error handle such an occurance, and the 404 was born. Thanks to our own Peter Flynn. Peter retired in August 2018 but his impact on UCC, Ireland and ultimately the world won't be forgotten!

The Great AI Muscle Atrophy

Remember when AI engineers actually had to understand math? The top half shows the glory days of hand-crafted algorithms and weeks of debugging custom gradient descent. The bottom half is just us typing "make AI do the thing" into ChatGPT and calling ourselves engineers. We've gone from spending months fine-tuning decision trees to spending minutes fine-tuning our prompts. The muscles have atrophied, but hey, at least we can ship "AI innovation" before lunch now.

Just A Simple Boolean Question

The eternal pain of expecting a simple true or false but getting "Yes" instead! Boolean questions should have binary answers, but somehow non-technical folks (and occasionally that one backend dev) manage to return strings like "Sure", "I think so", or my personal favorite: "It depends." The compiler in my brain throws a TypeError: Cannot convert String to Boolean every single time. The worst part? You can't even use !!response to coerce it properly!
