Got this:

!MESSAGE BadLocationException
...
org.eclipse.jface.text.BadLocationException
at org.eclipse.jface.text.ListLineTracker.getLineOffset(ListLineTracker.java:212)
...

Now I will think very badly of the dev.

It is followed by 20 seconds of idling (or whatever).

It would cost me a few milliseconds to know where the problem is if the error message would tell ***WHICH LOCATION IS BAD***.

One of the truly funny moments in my tech writing: I forget what the project was, but during final edits of an actually not very large manual, Microsoft Word bleated this https://nxdomain.no/~peter/dokumentet_er_for_stort.jpg at me.

This translates to "The document is too large to save. Delete some of the text before saving."

Ah yes, the timeless joy of reading a 19th-century treatise on #coffee ☕, brought to you by the wonder of modern web design: a blank page demanding #JavaScript and #cookies 🍪. Truly, the future of historical #literature has arrived, and it looks suspiciously like an error message 🙄.

I tried to call one of my doctors today, and my #Android phone told me "Server Unreachable".

What? What server is a telephone using to dial another telephone over the #PSTN? I checked my VPN, working fine. My IP connectivity was also fine.

Turns out one digit of the number was wrong.

Why the badword would the message not say, "Phone number is not assigned" or some other, you know, useful #ErrorMessage?

Hi :) Could anyone help me #interpret this #errormessage? I get it every time I try to #follow this #account here (@clayogra) from one of my accounts on friendica.feneas.org. The weird thing is, I can follow any other account on mstdn.social from friendica.feneas.org without any problems. #Thanks so much in advance!!!
