Pump Six really nails that feeling of "this thing we don't really understand keeps filling the log with warnings we don't know what to do about, let's ignore them and pray it just keeps working."

Any similarities with the real world are surely coincidental.

Many apps have warning/errors that are undecipherable from the very beginning, let alone 20 years later.

Or only make sense when looking into source code that is long gone

The worst is when the log line is constructed in a way that makes it really hard to find the source. Source code file name and line number is ideal but a tag like on Android auffices.

And to say that people are paid to find traces of attacks in logs, while after 5 years, everyone ignores everything that’s in the logs.
