That's not just hilarious, that's also pretty close to how I feel most of the time.
I mean, some people have built the Airbus A380.
On the other hand, last week, I created a test DB with the user "test" and the password "test". I couldn't connect to it, and after a long debugging session, noticed I misspelled "test".
So, yeah...

- jonplackett 6y agoWell, that Mars rover missed its target because they got their units of measurement mixed up. https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1999-oct-01-mn-17288-story.html https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1999-oct-01-mn-17288... So, don’t feel too bad...
- BiteCode_dev 6y agoIt does feel better knowing my mistake didn't cost $125-million dollars. Is there a book that lists many bugs and weird IT stories? Like the 500km email or the FileNotFound boolean.
- arexxbifs 6y agoA selection of dangerous and/or expensive bugs from space flight alone: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_software_bugs#Space https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_software_bugs#Space I'm sure there's plenty more, albeit of lesser significance.

- jagannathtech 6y agoI put comma ',' instead of the dot '.' in a file name with extension and wasted a couple of hours debugging.
- arexxbifs 6y agoI appreciate it's a joke, kicking at open doors at that. Still, here's what one dude coded in JavaScript on his spare time a few years ago: https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=71881 https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=71881
