Yep. And if an intern of yours came to you and said "I think I found a bug in the JDK", you'd probably say "What's really wrong with your code?", wouldn't you?

- beat 10y agoIf she thinks she found a "select is broken", she needs to write a test to exercise the behavior, independently of our existing code base. That's how I chased down the mmap() bug - I wrote a program that showed the bug on the prod servers but not the test servers, and sent the C code and the executable I compiled off to IBM for analysis. (It was a charming bug, btw... it would randomly overwrite pages of memory with nulls, maybe 10% of the time)
