When Your Hobby Code Becomes Business Critical

side-project-memes, intern-memes, deadlines-memes, corporate-memes, feature-creep-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

That moment when your "just for fun" code suddenly becomes mission-critical! One day you're tinkering with a side project to sharpen your skills, and the next day some executive is presenting it in the quarterly roadmap. The facial expression says it all - the perfect mix of pride, terror, and "what have I gotten myself into?" Now you're frantically refactoring spaghetti code, adding proper error handling, and praying that your commented-out debug statements don't make it to production. Classic case of success-induced panic!

I reported a bug for a game that came out yesterday, the cause had me laughing so hard | computer-memes, bug-memes, random-memes, machine-memes, rest-memes, error-memes, fix-memes, bug fix-memes, IT-memes, mac-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

Content Game-Breaking Bug Fixed The game breaking "stuck on Hey" bug has been fixed. The glitch did not allow the player to proceed past the first message of any level. The cause of this is very interesting. We tried on many machines but were unable to replicate the bug. It seemed like it was affecting players at random. After looking through the discussion posts and reviews, I started to notice a pattern. All reviews and messages sent were from people that are from places that were not North America. So the question was: what's the difference between a American computer and a non-American computer? Well when you are texting a message in the game and pause for a moment and then delete we tell the game to pause for a certain amount of time. for example 1.7 seconds. But decimal separators en wikipedia.orai are different in different countries (ex: 1.7 vs 1,7). This caused the game to either error or wait for an absurd amount of time before proceeding. In short, countries using decimal commas caused the game to break whereas countries using decimal points did not. TL;DR: The game is fixed now! Please enjoy.
