While(True), If/Else And Switch: Hardware Edition

Whoever made this deserves a promotion and a pay cut simultaneously. It's a visual pun on programming control structures that's painfully accurate:

The top left shows a bunch of Ethernet cables daisy-chained together - just like how if/else if/else if/else chains create a messy sequence of conditions.

The top right is an actual USB switch - a perfect representation of a switch statement that elegantly handles multiple cases.

And that power strip at the bottom? It's looped back on itself, creating an infinite power loop - exactly what happens with while(true) - an infinite loop that will keep running until your CPU begs for mercy or someone trips over the cord.

I've written this bug at least 17 times in my career. My CPU still hasn't forgiven me.
