Yeah, if I wanted to communicate with plenty of icons, I'd learn Egyptians hieroglyphs... There's a reason they've been superseded...
cosmic rays are what you blame when you can't find the bug
Sometimes you can prove it was a bit flip [caused by cosmic ray, local radioactivity or a glitch in the Matrix], you just need to find the exact bit. A friend of that managed to do exactly that after an error in his monthly accounting software. He proved you could only get the resulting sum if you flipped bit Nth of a certain value during the summation. It took him a while and he had written the software himself.
