Excel would use 100% CPU if you left a cell selected and your screen saver turned on because you were idle.

That bug caused untold grief for multi-user session hosts / terminal servers / Citrix XenApp for a better part of a decade. Way before slopware!

People forget that software written by people is… even worse.

It’s like the self driving car debate: sure, the robot taxis will kill people on occasion, but people kill people regularly.

What's the debate? Uber killed a person but that was the better part of a decade ago. I ride Waymo s and haven't been canceled. Not that I'd notice.
