When you finally switch to TypeScript for type safety but then sprinkle *any
everywhere like Agent Smith clones. The irony is delicious - you've become the very thing you swore to destroy. That strict typing lasted about as long as my commitment to writing unit tests.
For the uninitiated, any
is TypeScript's escape hatch that basically says "trust me bro, I know what I'm doing" while completely defeating the purpose of type checking. It's the programming equivalent of putting duct tape over your check engine light.
