Fatal error: Unexpectedly found nil while unwrapping an Optional value
Swift force-unwrapped (`!`) an optional that was nil, crashing the app.

PostgreSQL crashed (often OOM-killed) and is replaying WAL to recover.
The program can't start because api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll is missing from your computer

Could not load file or assembly 'X, Version=…' or one of its dependencies
The runtime couldn’t find or load a referenced DLL — missing from the output, wrong version, or wrong platform (x86/x64).

The program was built for another architecture (32/64-bit, ARM) or is blocked by S mode/compatibility, or the file is corrupt.
Kubernetes: CrashLoopBackOff
The container starts, crashes (or exits), and Kubernetes keeps restarting it with increasing back-off delays.
RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded
A function called itself (directly or indirectly) too many times — usually infinite recursion.
Killed / Out of memory: Killed process (Linux OOM killer)
The kernel ran out of memory and killed a process to recover — the program just prints “Killed” (exit code 137).

A string grew beyond the engine’s maximum length — usually runaway concatenation or huge JSON.stringify output.
MaxListenersExceededWarning: Possible EventEmitter memory leak detected. 11 listeners added
