It’s amusing how so many of the comments here are like “You think two days is hard? Well, I debugged a problem which was passed down to me by my father, and his father before him”. It reminds me of the Four Yorkshiremen sketch.

The author’s “error”, of course, was calling it “the hardest bug I ever debugged”. It drives clicks, but comparisons too.

Of course the comments section is going to be full of war stories about everyone's hardest bug.

This is how humans work, and this is why I am reading the comments.

Yes, of course, I greatly enjoy the stories and it’s why I opened this thread. But that’s not what my comment is about, I was specifically referencing the parts of the comments which dismiss the difficulty and length of time the author spent tracking down this particular bug. I found that funny and my comment was essentially one big joke.
