    Laypeople after reading the first part: that's stupid, who would make it work like that?

    Programmers after reading the last bit: ah yeah, that sucks.

    Haven't been coding for a while now, but shouldn't it be & instead of &&?

    @-ANGRY-STUDENT- Why would you want to use bitwise and?

    wow, I remember making such mistakes when I was starting out with programming. Fortunately I was never let any close to a responsibility for a code responsible for some insane amounts of money then.

    @msdsk i think the point is exactly that, it's such a newbie mistake that we shouldn't be seeing it from a fintech

    @AlgoRythm I mean, I did too. The only reason I checked into it more was that I was going to tell someone else about it and I have a personal policy of fact-checking a story before passing it on. 😅

    Logical & = Short-circuit evaluation
    Bitwise & = Non-Short-circuit evaluation

    Right?
