"Normal."




Sucks too when you have a bug that can take weeks of continuous operation before it manifests itself, and there's no way to speed up the process - even more fun when you don't know exactly what's causing it.



"As soon as we started programming, we found to our surprise that it wasn't as easy to get programs right as we had thought. Debugging had to be discovered. I can remember the exact instant when I realized that a large part of my life from then on was going to be spent in finding mistakes in my own programs."
- Maurice Wilkes, quoted in "Expert C Programming" by Peter van der Linden. (A useful and entertaining book.)

You need to find a man to fix it for you.

love that pic

 

[Gunslinger08]

I call it terrible. That doesn't usually happen to me, thankfully. I can locally debug most of the code we write so issues can be resolved pretty quickly.

 

[Leros]

Bad debugging skills or a total software rewrite of that area
