Like this: its clear; its dissimilar from other symbols; its easy to draw with klutzy IT fingers; and most importantly its really geeky.

His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

The vibrations refer to the starquake, not the rotation.

I also don't show the electro-magnetic field, the gravitational field, and the Cheela living on the neutron star. This is a suggestion for a glyph, not a peer-reviewed article on Relativistic Physics!

Daniel Pfeffer wrote: not a peer-reviewed article on Relativistic Physics! Too bad. Should you still write the article, perhaps you should also mention the Hirogen[^] who love to stroll on the surface.
Quote: ...The Hirogen body armor had internal life support, with a breathing apparatus over the mouth and nose, and it can protect a Hirogen hunter while seeking prey in most hostile environments, including the surface of a collapsed star. Good that they have life support when gravity crushes the protons into the neutrons.

like the hand with the zappy fingers - retains concept that glitch may be down to user activity after all

How about a little gremlin?

Actually the first gremlin (again from thenounproject) is quite excellent!

Not sure I like it for glitch but it is excellent, definitely going to use it somewhere.

Not sure how you are collecting data but this actually sounds to me as though a bug has been exposed.
If the application/system has the assumption that once a write is issued the data has been saved - this 'glitch' has exposed that as a bug within the system.
It sounds like the bug that has been exposed is that a save is not saved until it has been checked.
A great opportunity for a unit test!

All very true and happily planning a minor update to make it more robust. Still a glitch at root cause though.

Many moons ago, we referred to an anomaly seen in an oscilloscope display as a glitch. "look at the output of that flip-flop, it's not steady, there is a glitch in it".
I would suggest a lightening bolt kind of icon. Maybe with a beard.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

I second this! You could combine this with a hand/finger like the symbol for electrostatic shock hazard warning.

For this specific glitch...
