Maximum Punishment: Integer Overflow Edition

When you ask for a 32-bit integer but the judge gives you a signed one. That ~32,768 years sentence is suspiciously close to 2^15, which is exactly what happens when you overflow a signed 16-bit integer. The criminal probably wanted an unsigned int that goes up to 65,535, but instead got the negative range too. Classic rookie mistake. Should've specified the data type in the plea bargain.

Code: The Legal Addiction

Ah yes, programming: the socially acceptable addiction. When explaining our devotion to code to non-programmers, we're basically saying "I voluntarily stare at a screen that's slowly turning my spine into a question mark and my vision into a blur, all while my brain gets those sweet, sweet dopamine hits from solving problems that wouldn't exist if I hadn't created them in the first place." The existential crisis comes free with every merge conflict.

GitHub Actions Radicalized Me

The duality of developer existence: "These CI checks are required" vs "Fire anyone who bypasses them." Nothing radicalizes a developer faster than watching someone merge code that failed every test while you've been fighting for three days to get your perfectly valid PR to pass that one flaky test. The Kermit meme perfectly captures that moment when you go from "we should follow best practices" to "commit git arson against those who defy the CI gods."

Kernel Panic At The MRI Disco

Doctor: "How does it look doc?" MRI Machine: "Hold on a sec" *proceeds to have a complete kernel meltdown* Nothing says "your scan results might be delayed" quite like a cascade of system failures. Reminds me of that time I deployed to production on a Friday and my phone wouldn't stop buzzing with alerts. The machine is basically saying "I've tried nothing and I'm all out of ideas." At least the error messages are consistent - consistently failing at everything!

When Programmers Say Sorry

When someone tells you to apologize 1000 times, most people would groan and give up. But programmers? They just write a loop for that. This dev took the instruction to "Say it 1000 times" quite literally by crafting a Java program with a for loop that prints "Sorry babu" exactly 1000 times. Why waste your breath when you can automate your remorse? Efficiency at its finest—relationship problems solved with a runtime of O(n)!
