My experience has also shown that the effort for getting this right is vastly underestimated, initially and that eventually most of these many many applications end up with a set of bugs triggered by edge cases nobody thought about.
- hinkley 6y agothedailywtf used to be a fun place for seeing people answer the question, "what could go wrong?" but it got too dark or cringey for me (I can find dark without any help, thank you.) There's a whole ecosystem of minor catastrophes that don't quite warrant a blog post. Do we need a name for the Chesterton house on the corner of Dunning Way and Kruger Lane? At the same time, it's really hard to learn why that fence is there until you at least see someone else get injured by ignoring the signs, so in that respect TDWTF probably taught a lot of people about quite a few fences.
