[Beep boop, does not compute.] Computers and their software are only as smart as the people who program them. And even then, no programmer is perfect: there might be a small error in the code, a pesky bug, or an unexpected glitch that makes the software do what it’s not supposed to. The results can be hilarious and might get you chuckling whether you’re a coding tech veteran or you cheekily press your PC’s ‘off’ button when prompted to ‘press any button to continue.’
Our team here at Bored Panda loves humor and thinks that it’s one of the most powerful tools in anyone’s arsenal when life gets dark, dangerous, and depressing. So we’ve surfed all over the net to bring you these glorious software fails that would make even ‘The Matrix’ glitch out. Scroll down and remember to upvote the pics you liked the most, dear Pandas. Tell us all about the worst software chaos that you’ve personally seen in the comment section at the bottom of this list.
And if you’re hungry for some more digital laughter, take a peek at our previous article about software hilarity right here.
Steven Wooding, a member of the Institute of Physics in the UK and part of the Omni Calculator Project, who created the fun and useful Weird Units Converter, explained to Bored Panda how he approaches software bugs and glitches.
“I’m a physicist, so I like to use the scientific method when debugging troublesome code. If it’s a bug that a user has reported, the first job is to reproduce the bug yourself. If you can’t, then maybe there’s a problem with something outside your control,” he explained to us his approach. “Once you’ve reproduced it, develop a hypothesis as to why the software is behaving incorrectly and test it. Once you have a proven theory, it’s time to fix the bug, then try again to see if the issue is resolved. You have to be careful, though, as the fix might introduce another bug. Having a standard set of tests will help catch such errors.”
