I guess I just assumed that everyone researches everything. Doesn't everyone look into how network routing works, or how every large API or framework is implemented, etc? If you're running into a bug, and that bug can possibly be affected by any of those things, then you have to dive all the way to the bottom of the swimming pool to see if there's something amiss.
- scott_s 12y agoYes, we do that. But we also have learned, the hard way, to have some humility with that knowledge. Something may disagree with our mental model, but we're careful not to say something is impossible because our mental model may be wrong. (In fact, it is wrong, since we're dealing with a bug.)
