minus-squarepalordrolap@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up2·10 months agoReminds me of the guy who was the original reporter of a fault in some software that went unfixed for years. He eventually applied for, and got, a job at that software’s company. His first day, he logs on, and goes to find and then fixes that bug. With a sigh of relief, he then logs off and quits the job. (I believe this is a true story, but someone will undoubtedly be along in a minute to confirm or correct. With a sigh of relief no doubt.)
