Spent 4 hours tracking down a glitch that was just a stray space character
I was editing a news clip about a city council meeting and the subtitles kept jumping a full second early. Tore my hair out re-syncing the audio, checking frame rates, the whole deal. Turns out there was an invisible space character at the end of a line in the caption file that threw the timing off. Has anyone else had a dumb formatting glitch waste a whole afternoon like that?

Did my buddy dig through a week of emails for a bug that was just a missing period?

Most devs have been there, I bet the fix felt both satisfying and humiliating at the same time.

A week well spent catching that critical character.
