You send a static image of your UI design to the client. They respond asking why the button doesn't work. You sit there questioning your career choices and wondering if you should've gone into carpentry instead. At least wood doesn't expect JPEGs to be interactive.

They've somehow managed to make status codes even more confusing by inventing their own bizarre numbering system. Standard HTTP has nice, clean codes like 200 (OK), 404 (Not Found), and 500 (Server Error). But this madlad decided "200 OR 1000" means success? And what's with all those 1000+ codes that read like someone's therapy session?

This is what happens when you let someone design an API after they've been rejected from the HTTP standards committee. Next they'll be telling us 418 (I'm a teapot) is too mainstream and replacing it with "2077: Brewing device self-identifies as kettle."
