I had a stupid technical issue back in the day so I made a post on reddit in hopes that someone figures it out. No solution was found though the comments but I did found out how to fix it and posted an extensive edit and a comment for people to find when searching the same issue.

It has been 5 years since and I still sometimes get comments on that post thanking me for the solution.

Can't imagine people just saying "I figured it out, thanks!" and never posting their solution...

I had a really frustrating issue getting some controller code for arduino to work and finally did a search on Reddit. Sure enough the top hit was someone who had exactly the same problem as I did, but was kind enough to put the entire solution in the comments.

And it turns out that Redditor was me. I had the same ****** problem 5 years prior and didn't remember. I can't tell if that makes me smart or stupid.
