Whoops

I guess this is something other IT-employed people can relate to. Finding out, weeks later after you put through code to fix a problem, that it had unintended consequences elsewhere...sorry, users, I just hope that screen isn't too important.

Bugs. Can't live with 'em...can probably live without 'em...

That's one of the problems with large systems... It's impssible to know the ins and outs of the whole syetem, and the consequences of a code change. I'm finding that as we [my current project] are reaching the million LOC mark that I'm increasingly having this problem as well.

Oooh, I yearn for a system of only a million LOC...
