Coding Like This on a Plane

what’s stopping you from coding like this? const isEven = (num: number) => { if (num === 0) { return true; } if (num === 1) { return false; } if (num === 2) { return true; } if (num === 3)

A laptop displaying overly complicated code is shown in front of an airplane window with a wing visible outside. The joke is that someone is coding during a flight, turning a simple even-number check into an absurdly elaborate function. People send this as a reaction to boastful or impractical programmer behavior.
