Why would Google return an empty page based on any UA string? This is such a bizarre bug.

Why would Google return an empty page based on any UA string? This is such a bizarre bug.
- TonyTrapp 3y agoAccording to a comment on the issue, the page output is "<!DOCTYPE html>%", and that suspiciously looks like some template / placeholder evaluation might not be doing its jobs properly.
- kevincox 3y agoI would bet that the backend crashed. Probably the backend sent the initial headers and start of the response to the load balancer, then stared rendering the page and crashed. Presumably `<!doctype html>` is hardcoded as it is always sent for HTML pages and maybe fills up one of the initial packets or something. The rest of the page may be rendered and return as separate chunks (or just one large content chunk).
