Trust Me Bro: It's Expected Behavior

Content Me: uploads code to stack overflow so that other people can help me debug the error I'm getting Everyone else working on the military's missile guidance software:

Oh look, it's the sacred scroll of knowledge I decided to ignore for the past 4 hours! Nothing quite captures that special feeling of defeat when you finally surrender to reading documentation after waging a heroic but utterly pointless battle against a codebase. The blank stare of realization that all your suffering could have been avoided with a simple 5-minute read. Congratulations, brave warrior - you've just unlocked the ancient developer achievement: "Reading The Manual As Absolute Last Resort."

Content Computer systems that use time for critical computations may encounter fatal errors if the Y2038 problem is not addressed. Some applications that use future dates have already encountered the bug. The most vulnerable systems are those which are infrequently or never pdated, such as legacy and embedded systems. There is no universal solution to the problem, though many modern systems have been upgraded to measure Unix time with signed 64- bit integers which will not overflow for 292 billion years

When someone reports a CRITICAL security vulnerability where they got auto-logged into Miles Morales' account without authentication, and your first instinct is "hmm, maybe I should just update the mock data with the reporter's name so it LOOKS like it's working correctly?" 💀 Imagine the absolute AUDACITY of this solution. "Oh no, our authentication is completely broken and people can access random accounts? Quick! Let's just make sure when THEY access it, it shows THEIR name! Problem solved!" It's like putting a "Wet Floor" sign on the Titanic while it's sinking. The developer really said "security vulnerability? more like security opportunity to demonstrate my creative problem-solving skills" and honestly? That's the kind of chaotic energy that keeps QA teams employed forever.

You start the day with such optimism. "Just a quick fix," you tell yourself, coffee in hand, ready to squash that little bug. Fast forward a few hours and your workspace looks like a crime scene—broken monitors, chair flipped, desk in shambles, and you're curled up in the fetal position questioning your career choices. The best part? The bug is still there, watching you suffer. Turns out that "simple fix" was actually a load-bearing bug holding your entire codebase together.
