The anatomy of a bug
  • sorry, my eyes glazed over after about the 4th paragraph. must. fight. urge. to. fall. unconscious...
  • Yoiu work for Micrsoft, don't you?
  • Yeah, and I drive a Lamborghini, and Paris Hilton has my name tattooed on her ass. I made all my money on Bob. All true. Really.
  • I've helped with bug hunts (although not with MS, thank God), and this is right on the money. It's boring, painfully detailed work, and each bug fix may open up another bug or three without effort. What's amazing is that, with dozens of development teams contributing to the final product, it works as well as it does.
  • And the comment above should be response #4. The Date/Time Bug strikes again!
