I Believe In 90s-2000s Internet And Technology Supremacy

Homer Simpson ripping out a "Free IT Advice" sign to reveal the sacred commandment of tech: "IF IT WORKS, DON'T TOUCH IT." This isn't just advice—it's the unspoken religion of every production environment. That mystical code that ran fine for 7 years? Written by a dev who left the company in 2015? Deployed on a server no one remembers the password to? Yeah, nobody's volunteering to "refactor" that bad boy. We just light candles and pray it continues working until retirement.

The code involved is something like this: string.Format(Global(01, (object) Assembly.GetExecuting Assembly.GetType0.GUID); 11 17 44 ( 888 foone Foone 15 Std. The idea is to get the GUID of the assembly that's executing and to create a GUID based on that, so now you can only run one copy of it. 0 2 17 20 ( 650 foone Foone 15 Std. But it's wrong. The .GetType0 part isn't supposed to be there. That gets the type of the assembly, not the assembly itself. And that type is System.Reflection.RuntimeAssembly, part of .NET itself. 0 2 17 29 ( 1.005 1 foone Foone 15 Std. So what happens is that both of them are creating a global mutex to ensure only one copy runs, but instead of basing the GUID on their own code, they're both using the GUID of a part of NET itself.

The giant spoon of Visual Studio smacking you in the face when all you wanted was to check a tiny XML file. Nothing says "I just wanted to see what's inside" like having an entire IDE launched at Mach 5 just to view 10 lines of code. The real kicker? By the time VS loads, you could've written the entire file from memory, refactored it twice, and still had time for a coffee break.
