This also applies to coding! And I’m not currently dreading the fact I keep thinking of more and more convoluted solutions to my problem at work at all!
The overlap of things tried with logical reasons is far too great for programming. Have you tried speaking to your duck about it?
I have spent the last two days on a networking issue. Certain images weren’t being transmitted over the network, even though they were being generated.
It turns out that the image generation was actually silently failing because I was missing fonts.
You’re not alone, we weep together
My colleague has had problems with his camera. He bought a new cable, started cooling the camera, reinstalled drivers, reinstalled the entire measuring software, anything half-reasonable you can think of.
Well last week he was sick and another colleague took over his experiments. Turns out the camera works just fine on the 2nd monitor.
We still have no idea why.
