You know at least it printed an error. I hate when things silently swallow errors.

I'm looking at you, Python programmers:

try:
   <100 lines of nonsense>
except:
   pass

    I am in the process of fixing a bug at work where pretty much every method has a try(Exception e){...}catch{LOGGER.error(...)}. The method calling my team's method needs to know when an interrupted exception is thrown. So far I have fixed this in 10 different methods, and we keep finding more. It's like playing whack-a-mole.
