- hackinthebochs 9y agoSeems like a good a place as any to note that I actually discovered this bug in high school programming class circa 1999. If only blogging was popular back then I could have been internet famous! (Surely this bug has been rediscovered many times, just predates the self-aggrandizing blog-post-for-everything era)
