How many bugs did you find in (production versions of) your applications? How many in compilers?

I maintain compilers for a living for a safety-critical embedded OS. I've found dozens of bugs in the compiler, dozens of bugs in the OS kernel, and dozens of bugs in the third-party validation test suites we use to qualify the compiler.

I also live in a log cabin in the back woods and can go off-grid. I've seen shit you people would not believe. It's just a matter of time now. Dominoes.

I write compilers so I find tons of bugs in them, and in other people’s compilers I’m looking at, all the time.
