Just fixed a bug in the code, a crash in a sub system I wrote and maintain. A bug caused by a change somebody else made in a central library that all the sub systems use but due to luck on of my systems was the one that crashed when any one of the couple of dozen could have done so. Kind of annoying when that happens, didn't take me long to fix though. The annoying thing about it? There was a comment in the code saying not to do something since a pointer was no longer valid. Guess what, this other person used the invalid pointer to do something. Oh well. Makes me look good though fixing something really quickly. Less than an hour to see the bug, diagnose it, code a fix, test it, get it code reviewed and checked in. Pretty good turn around I think.
Went and got a yummy meatball sandwich for lunch for my wife and I to share. Another advantage of working from home it seems. Think we have pasta for dinner tonight, we cleared out some crap from the kitchen freezer (as opposed to the big chest freezer in the garage) and got that out to use up. Too much hidden food in our freezers sometimes.
