and shoulder pads could have worked too. it's all in the execution.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

Agreed - the person who invented them should have been executed.

that's a little harsh. I usually reserve that sort of criticism for VB developers.
i'm kidding. i don't care what language they code in, i have equal contempt for them all.

I use blood magic.
If I could tap Isaiah 53 without it ending my own life you all would be in for wonders.
Code notwithstanding.

My current project requires half an hour to build (it has to fetch every component from the main customer server over a slow VPN and cross-compile every module + execute a lot of code generators and yocto run) and can't be debugged stepping into code, we can only register terse debug messages and analyze post-mortem.

that sounds almost as awful as when i had a project where every build revision had to go through gov approval.
i do not envy you.

BTW, one of the projects I maintain is a DOS-based Pascal 7 app which indeed takes minutes to compile.

If you cannot reproduce it in the debugger, it could be a stack based variable that is getting overwritten (b/c it is somehow being returned). Logging is the ultimate answer.
It should be repeatable... If it is, it is solvable!

it's repeatable, it's just that it's right in the middle of a LALR parser generator table transformation so building the table in such a way as to reproduce it is the trick. That's why i said i'm sticking with the current repro. Finding another one is tricky, not impossible. It's just because of where the bug is and what it is.

Answer #1: Yes. He has been hacked.
Answer #2: No, obviously.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.
