Really? What is it going to take to get beyond the stupid provocative titles?

Can we work on being constructive? It would be pretty sweet if people started writing post-mortems for crazy bugs they found the way people write them for outages.

What was the process you went through to track down this problem? Were there any interesting tools or processes you employed?

What was the final solution?

What can we (both you and your team and the community as a whole) do in the future to prevent this sort of thing from happening again?

It seems to be more or less universally true that anyone complaining about a particular language, framework, platform, IDE, text editor, etc. is staring into the abyss of whatever outdated, outmoded, outmaneuvered way of thinking that they've invested themselves into. Everyone else is busily improving on what we've got to work with.
