I assume the abort was because they came down so far off centerline? Did anyone catch anything other than that?

Can you imagine what it would be like if a bronze age fisherman were transported to our time, and you were giving him a tour?
*Standing off the departure end of a runway at a large airport.
*747 takes off and flies overhead.
Bronze ager: WTF is *THAT*!!!!
You: It's a flying ship. We do that these days.
Bronze ager: That's a enormous ship!
You: Meh, it's hard to get things to fly, so it's actually fairly tiny compared to a floating ship...
Bronze ager: HOW BIG ARE YOUR FLOATING SHIPS???!!!
*Bronze ager faints.
Finding a bug that causes a permanent off-by-one error in billable metrics is not great for your mental health. I'm on the fast track to becoming paranoid now... :shifty: At least the code wasn't in production yet.
Centreline didn't look that bad. Maybe the reverse's didn't deploy?
Sadly I am no longer responsible for fixing this bug and shutting down the second tier servers sequentially for maintenance was a cheaper solution...

Remarkable, would have thought it flooded and capsized long ago ?
Wonder why HMS Protector didn't torpedo it as a danger to navigation?
Yes, that's what they say!
Bit suspicious it just happened to come across that vessel when it should have been hunting icebergs...
