You know that sinking feeling when you deploy to production at 4:59 PM on a Friday and suddenly realize your entire user base is seeing "John Doe", "[email protected]", and license plates that literally say "EXAMPLE"? Yeah, someone definitely forgot to swap out their placeholder values before merging that PR.
The DMV worker who approved this plate probably had the same energy as a code reviewer who just rubber-stamps everything with "LGTM" without actually reading the diff. Now this driver is cruising around as a real-life manifestation of every developer's nightmare—being the living proof that someone skipped the environment variable check.
Fun fact: This is exactly why we have staging environments. Too bad nobody uses them properly.
