    This is better than macOS kernal panicking and restarting the computer with a dialog that reads “You restarted your computer without shutting down properly.”

    Fuck you, macOS, you didn’t math correctly. Own it.

    Years ago I had to work with a Java library that had the same kind of cutesy errors. I think it was jxta. It was terrible. It would collapse if I looked at it funny.

    The first time I got an error like that, I thought how random and cute the devs were.

    The second, I thought they were just like me.

    The third, I was a little annoyed that they seemed to put more effort into their error messages than their software.

    The fourth, I was annoyed that i had to read past their drek to find the error.

    The fifth, I hated them.

    The sixth, I wanted to find and punch them.

    The seventh+, I swore I would never deal with their shit again if I could avoid it.

      That only works if you rarely see the error. If the software pukes often, it gets grating.
