What if
roleisFILE_NOT_FOUND?!-
if it's
'FILE_NOT_FOUND'then the string will be read as truthy and you will get'User is admin'logged.-
Ackshually three equal signs check for type as well. So mere truthiness is not enough. It has to be exactly true.
Also, everyone knows FILE_NOT_FOUND isn't a string but a boolean value.
-
yeah, it's funny how my brain collapsed the boolean check into
if (role)rather thanif (role === true)- that's trickywhat is
FILE_NOT_FOUND? I can't find much on it ...-
FILE_NOT_FOUND is from an old story on thedailywtf.com. Someone created a boolean enum with TRUE, FALSE and FILE_NOT_FOUND, if I recall correctly. It's been a recurring running joke.
-
thank you for letting me in on the joke 😄
and for catching my error!
-
Welcome! I guess this is your Ten Thousand moment for a mediocre joke for old programmers. 💪👍
-
haha, yes - exactly! At least I got that reference, xkcd is pretty well known, though.

I see that they've gone back to the name "The Daily WTF". For some time, they changed to "Worse than failure" in order to avoid not even the word "fuck". 🤷
