Coding Horror’s first rule of programming is “It’s Always Your Fault”. I’m a big believer in this rule.
That’s why I was so surprised to find a bug in GCC 4.7.2 that turned out to be real and not just a fragment of my imagination. I’m also surprised no one else reported it earlier. I guess it shows that there aren’t too many people (or companies) out there building C++11 code, yet.
So after more than 10 years of programming in C/C++, this is the one time I get to be affected by a compiler bug. From now on it’s going to be really my fault 100% of the time.
Hehe… “It’s Always Your Fault”. That’s a nice one.
I probably have an appropriate opportunity to use it every day…in a mail to others :-)
Well…This is the Israeli interpretation.
:) As far as I recall, in your line of work “it’s your data’s fault” is more appropriate.
Noooooooo…the users fault.
Yep…The world would have been so perfectly convenient without them.

Still your fault for not finding this bug earlier!
Right :)
