Ah, the ancient art of regex debugging. Just like this archaeologist examining hieroglyphics with a magnifying glass, you're squinting at a wall of cryptic symbols that made perfect sense to whoever wrote them 3000 years ago. You'll spend hours deciphering why your pattern matches "bobcat" but not "bob cat" only to realize you forgot a single whitespace character. Future civilizations will discover your corpse, still clutching your keyboard, with the regex /^(?=.*[A-Z])(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*\d)(?=.*[@$!%*?&])[A-Za-z\d@$!%*?&]{8,}$/ carved into your tombstone.
