Binary Blunders - Page 5: The Great Divide-by-Nine

The year is 2099, and humanity has finally reached the pinnacle of technological advancement. The Great Divide-by-Nine, a catastrophic event where the last remaining bits of humanity's collective sanity were lost to the void of binary code.

Here's a list of the top 9 most heinous blunders committed by the world's top programmers:

• The programmer who used a 32-bit signed integer to represent a boolean value.
• The one who wrote a 20,000-line function with no comments or whitespace.
• The developer who used a 4KB font for their entire project's UI.
• The genius who implemented a 3D rotating cube in a web page for "drama" purposes.
• The person who used 10MB of memory for a simple "Hello, World!" program.
• The mastermind who coded an entire system using only 8-bit assembly language.
• The individual who made a "security feature" that required users to input their entire life story for authentication.
• The master who wrote a 100MB database for storing a single user's favorite color.

And the top blunder of them all...
