Thank you very much! This is great read! Though, no actual steps mentioned, including the:

I do get the most of these stated, but it would be awesome to know more about how he did actually find it, and with what toolset. Was is gdb, Valgrind, JetBrains, IDA Pro, or some another general/complex dump viewer/toolset?
And, the interactive miracle, at the top of the website is freaking marvelous... It reminded me of the articles of the fluid simulation algorithms of Yusuke Endoh! Heartfelt gratitude to the developer, the artist who implemented it!
Apparently, behind the scene, the fluid colors are contained in an array where every single color has a defined meaning!
// categories in STACK order: index 0 at the floor → 4 at the surface
const CATS = [
{ key: "Code", rgb: [133, 232, 157] },
{ key: "Craft", rgb: [179, 146, 240] },

{ key: "Story", rgb: [255, 171, 112] },
{ key: "Opinion", rgb: [158, 203, 255] },

Thanks!
This happened two years ago and it took me quite some time to piece together all the information of when it happened. I will see if I can get the original gdb output and add it to the blog post.

I've yet to debug a big where the manifestation happens prior to the cause... Sounds even harder. :p

UB in C++ can have the manifestation occur prior to the cause :-/

That's the work of https://x.com/CoreyGinnivan.
Roger that! Thank you for the reference to the Artist!

Roger that! I'll look forward for an update, and hope to catch the moment and learn from it!
Meanwhile, I do wish you, and the whole team, success, stability, and peace!
Thanks! I’ve added a screenshot of the gdb output to the blog
That makes no grammatical sense.
A (flaky test) exposed a (Redis client) use-after-free [bug]
Works on my machine. (Even though HN's filters removed the leading "How")
I don't think you're replying to the right comment, since I didn't mention anything working.
The "machine" in question is my brain (or at least, the part of it that parses grammar).
