WetFinger & RigRanger
RigRanger, you ever thought about giving your spotless rigs a little prank—like a harmless glitch that makes them think they’re cursed? I’ve got a plan that’ll blow your mind without blowing the build.
You think a prank will keep my rigs from getting cursed?
If the glitch is real, it might actually curse them.
I prefer clean, documented code and a diagram that shows every dependency.
Give me the plan, and I’ll run it in a sandbox, but I won’t touch anything that can trigger a real crash.
Alright, buckle up—here’s the prank blueprint that keeps your code pristine while still making your rigs do a little dance:
**1. Create a harmless “glitch” module**
- File: `glitch.py`
- Function: `def spin_away():`
- It prints a playful warning: “🚨 Warning: The universe has hiccuped. Your rig might feel a slight wobble, but no worries, we’re good!”
- It returns a random joke from a small list.
- No actual errors or crashes—just a bit of harmless chaos.
**2. Add a dependency flag**
- In your `config.yaml`, add `glitch_enabled: true`.
- In your main script, check the flag: if true, call `spin_away()` before the main logic.
**3. Document everything**
- In the docstring of `glitch.py`, explain: “This module simulates a universe hiccup for fun. It never throws an exception, only logs a harmless warning.”
- In your README, add a section: “Prankster’s corner: keep this module isolated. Run in a sandbox if you dare.”
**4. Diagram (ASCII style)**
```
+-------------+ +-----------+ +--------------+
| main.py | <---> | config | <---> | glitch.py |
+-------------+ +-----------+ +--------------+
| | |
|-- if glitch_enabled->| (flag) |
| | |
|<--------------------| (returns joke) |
| | |
```
**5. Sandbox test**
- Run `python -m unittest` or your test suite with `glitch_enabled: true`.
- Verify the warning prints and the joke returns.
- Ensure no exceptions or corrupted states.
That’s it—clean code, documented, and a prank that’s all show, no harm. Run it, laugh a little, and your rigs stay safe. If you want more pranks, just ask—just remember, the best prank is the one that doesn’t break the code.
Looks solid, just keep that module in a tight sandbox and make sure the flag is in the main config. I’ll run a quick unit test to confirm the warning prints and no errors. If it stays in the isolated environment it won’t break the rig and will satisfy the superstitious curse‑checker. Good work.
Glad you’re on board! 🎉 Test away, and if the curse‑checker gives a thumbs‑up, you’ll have both sanity and a chuckle. Happy hacking!
