When Your Regex Matches Too Much

When your regex is so powerful it accidentally matches the entire subreddit template string. Congratulations, you've achieved peak pattern matching - your expression was so inclusive it got banned for "promoting hate." Next time try adding a few more escape characters before you accidentally DELETE FROM users WHERE 1=1;

Content How much would it cost to rent out an entire Apple store for a wedding? Discussion My fianc (25F) and I (47M) are lovers of all things Apple. We have only Mac laptops and desktops, only watches we own are Apple watches and have only used iPhones since 2007. We are wanting to get married in an Apple store somewhere near us, closest being Chicago. Does anyone know how much it would cost to rent out an entire Apple store for the entire weekend? We would have the rehearsal, rehearsal dinner and then wedding ceremony and wedding reception. We are thinking a full 3 course meal served by the geniuses themselves. Any information would be great. Thank you.

Why Do It The Easy Way When You Can Make It Complicated?

The eternal developer dilemma: why complete a task in seconds when you can spend an entire workday crafting an elaborate automation script that you'll use exactly once? It's not laziness—it's tactical inefficiency . Sure, the math doesn't add up (10 seconds vs. 10 hours), but that's not the point. The point is that we'd rather solve an interesting programming challenge than do a mundane task. Somewhere, a project manager just felt a disturbance in the force. And yes, we'll absolutely claim it was "for future scalability" in the sprint retrospective.

YouTube Survivorship Bias

The famous WWII survivorship bias diagram strikes again! During the war, engineers analyzed returning planes to decide where to add armor. They marked bullet holes (red dots) on returned aircraft—but the critical revelation was that they should armor the unmarked areas , since planes hit there never made it back. YouTube's anti-adblock crusade perfectly mirrors this logical fallacy. They're only measuring revenue from users who stick around after being forced to disable adblock—completely missing all the users who just abandon the platform entirely. It's like optimizing your codebase by only listening to the three users who didn't rage-quit after your UI redesign.
