I landed in Australia this morning and as soon as my phone updated to Dec 2 on the new network my phone started locking up immediately. It would go to the loading screen (spinner in middle of screen) every 8-12 seconds then reset to lock screen after 4-5 more, making it nearly impossible to even access settings for more than a few seconds. I was able to disable local notifications for the apps that I know use them after 3 or 4 tries (required some quick navigation to get to the right screen before it locked up). I captured the logs on a number of occasions but and saw a few anomalies in the logs including this one:

iPhone kernel[0] <Notice>: 2404.102 memorystatus: killing_highwater_process pid 736 [SpringBoard] (highwater 16) - memorystatus_available_pages: 26834

Possibly SpringBoard consuming too much memory because of the bug?

Additional saw some of these, although not sure if they are a factor:

iPhone dasd(DuetActivitySchedulerDaemon)[107] <Notice>: com.apple.healthd.achievement-asset-manager:E60402:[ {name: NetworkQualityPolicy, policyWeight: 11.400, response: {Decision: Must Not Proceed, Score: 0.00, Rationale: [{[wifiQuality]: Required:100.00, Observed:50.00},{[networkPathAvailability]: Required:1.00, Observed:1.00},]}}

It’s a calendar bug. Local notifications are/can be scheduled 30 days in advance, so on Dec 2nd they can be scheduled on Jan 1st. I saw crash logs on Twitter mentioning “month 13”, so it looks like there’s an off by one bug in that calendar handling code

Stupid mistakes by big companies helped me fight the imposter syndrome.

That makes it all the more unusual, because I have not heard of Apple devices having problems on Dec 2 before now; unless they're rewriting everything frequently, which may also explain a few of the other severe bugs they've produced recently... yet another argument for not replacing things entirely just because they're "old" --- software needs time to mature and stabilise, and have its bugs fixed. Something as simple as a date addition should've been perfected by now.
