The Perks of Being Invisible

Why 0 Users is the Best Christmas Gift. 🎄
Usually, this time of year is a nightmare for developers.
You have to code falling snowflakes into the header (which slows down the site).
You have to write a "Year in Review" email that nobody reads.
You have to worry about server loads.
Me? I have none of that.
Current User Count: 0 (well, maybe couple of bots).
Current Stress Level: 0.
Since I don't have to send out 10,000 "Happy Holidays" emails, I actually have time to do something important: sit on the couch and watch a movie.
So, the only critical decision I have to make before 2026 starts is:
Die Hard or Home Alone?
🏢 vs 🏠
(I'm leaning towards Die Hard. It is a Christmas movie, fight me).
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to my future users. The server is running, the lights are on, and I'll be waiting for you in January.
