Most helpful error log ever...

Writing a change log must be fun.

They say a man's best friend is his dog.
But a developer's best friend is his log!

Log files ...

Dumbest feature request was to hide log out button so that people do not leave the website 😂

Best kind of change log.

Starting to use the Devrant face in my log messages

Not mine but an error message in a game when you're trying to logout:

"You're currently not logged in. Please log in to log out."

Logically valid though

The funniest Github issue log I've seen, and probably will ever see...

Sites that make you LOG IN to unsubscribe from newsletters YOU SPECIFICALLY DID NOT SUBSCRIBE TO.

"Who the fuck wrote this garbage?"
colleague checks commit log
"..."
"Fuck, it was me"

You: O(n^3)
The guy she tells you not to worry about: O(n*log n)

Me: you should not open that log file in excel its almost 700mb
Client: its okay, my computer has 4gb ram
Me: *looking at clients computer crashing*
Client: the file is broken!
Me: no, you just need to use a more memory efficient tool, like R, SAS, python, C#, or like anything else!

Git log went wrong 😰

Unpopular opinion time:
Blockchain is just overrated git log.

"your session is expired you need to log in again to perform this action"

hmm... should I log in again to perform log out :)

Perfect change log doesn't exis-

You know those fibonacci numbers can't hide from this porsche ......

When you trying to make a youtube Downloader............ and also new to php

Production system. Plaintext log.

TEN YEAR LOG
FUUUUCK

QA: Hey I found a bug.
Me: Okay, can you log the bug and assign to me?
QA: <audible sigh> sure

I just found out that there is a method in Java/Android called "Log.wtf()" which stands for...

... What a Terrible Failure!
Don't believe me? See for yourselves! (way to go, guys!)

Lol what 😂😂

Someone wasn't in a very good mood that day :p
Log data from when the WhatsApp for windows desktop failed to install~ 2/2

Not even algo this time. Probably not what the ranter meant by change log, but close enough

dev A: is everything operative?
dev B: yeah, sure
dev A: how do you know?
dev B: log service doesn't show anything wrong
dev A: does the log service work?
dev B: why shouldn't it? It's its job
dev A: *sips tea*

Hilariously cool error.

I mean, not everyday your editor tells you to meditate or sing you a bob Dylan’s song, right?

That’s a nice touch atom.

Me: opens the log file for some answers

Log file:

My brother singed up for a browser game.... They sent him his log data (including password) via email

Multithreading has a new perspective now.
Also, fast is cute.
Part 2 of the awesome change log. 😂

1.3 trillion rows of log data just nuked our production db. Fucking data scientists!!!

My code broke for no reason.
I added a log statement to see why.
*tests code*
It worked....
What the 何?!

OS Lab Day 1 :

Teacher - Log in to Ubuntu , open "linux cmd."

I had a weird dream last night where people communicated by using log statements.

Like if I wanted to say something very loud I'd think Log.wtf("WTF!") and it would appear in front of me like subtitles. Log levels were equivalent to tone level.

The scene was basically a bunch of people with log statements of various levels in front of them and their lips moving with no sound.

I think I need a vacation.

Log into work at 9 am to see a meeting scheduled for 7 am, sent at 6 am.

So apparently due to an extremely talkative x input driver and an error in a certain app, I've been running an emergent keylogger on my computer for half a year. On every keypress event, the driver would call the app, the app would segfault, the driver would log the incident including the event to /var/log and then crash, and the app would restart the worker. I noticed this when I started wondering why /var/log is over 100GB in size.

When you find this on an open-source project's git log -> :facepalm:

This “Caps lock is on” feature when typing in passwords was probably very angrily added by a developer after several failed log in attempts.

Looking around the directory, i noticed these log files.
He sure have a rough time testing it.

Apologies if my work station is running on Windows.

SVN commit log for a project folder:

"Remove printing of user and password to log"

There we go

I always use my work password the first time I log in my home computer.

Ever single time.

well shit this is in the git history now...

How trees access the internet? They Log on.

No one:
Me: watching your fail2ban log is a programmer's fish tank

Am I the only one who create a function to save the logs?

All of my friends say that is useless 😞

Log into mostly any Linux systems by hitting backspace 28 times.

Open notepad and type:

.LOG

then save as a text file.

Can you log out of Facebook and LinkedIn? Cool. That'll be £50 please.

You know you've been a dev for to long when a program fails to launch and you instinctively open the log files.

A : "The log tables of the licenses is broken, fix it"

Me : "But who ever made this didn't make a relation between master log table and the detailed one. I can't get anything from details table"

A : "There is a relation .. "

Me : "What ?"

A : "The date entry of each record"

Me : "I Quit"

This is one hot console log
Sorry if it's a repost🤓

I have already posted a function for this week, but I thought to this for Android developers:

Log.wtf()

It's hilarious.

Please explain it to me again why you need more space for your 200 mb database that has a 500 gb log file.

> tries opening a 2gb log file with notepad ++
> notepad reee: file too big
> pu*** a** b****

Log off from social networks.

For all the people who don't put any useful information in error logs.

Tip of monday:

Test your restores, not your backups.

Just got f#@ed by trusting the log, not the restore folder size

Pushed an update to production but forgot to turn off the debug option to print SQL queries to the log. Now all I see is SQL queries.

It's now hopeless to read the log with tail ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

C++ application running on Linux. If customer makes a mistake, I log CustomerIsDumb to kernel message buffer.

All of my colleagues think that IT dept. know all the internet traffics.

Plot twist: we just have simple router without any log

Ubuntu One decided I am a bot and won't let me log in. Well, fuck you! I don't need you anymore.

App crashes

"See logs for detail"

Re-implemented a Perl-based log analysis script in plain old C to make it faster.

Horrible implementation... Good times.

"O(log(n)) on the streets, O(n^2) in the sheets."

Logging levels: Verbose, Debug, Info, Warning, Error, What a Terrible Failure

Today I make a big progress in agile development.

You don't say fuck you. You say your request is in the back log.

😎

I always use "less" to display log files, always hoping the server gets what I mean by typing

less error.log #plz

Most furstrating bug :
console.lof()
yup! lof not log

Non-technical manager who been managing my team for years: "hey can you take a look at this log?"

*log is all PHP*

Us: "we're iOS devs, none of us know PHP"

Manager: "well why not?"

HOW DO YOU GET PAID MORE THAN US

For some reason, when testing if a block of code is firing, I always do console.log('fart'); More often than not I forget to remove it before going to production. I feel good knowing that's out there on dozens of sites right now.

Had someone try to log into our application today from IE7, what the actual?

Fuck me and I was wondering what's eating away 3,1tb.... btw only 40gb left

It's been a while since I last log in into my devrant account.

Hello guys!

If you've ever scratched your head over using "login" or "log in", I hope this helps.

updates without a change log make me want to uninstall the app 😫

Searching for random Linux bug.. finds Gist with exact match (thinking, WOW, thanks Google!)..

It's a 2000+ line log dump. : |

I found this gem today.
It perfectly generated ~5 GBs of useless log in the past 2 years.

Why fix browser compatibility issues when you can just block what versions users can log in with?

every javascript developer uses the mighty console.log()

A new mathematical constant was discovered recently: Bruce's constant

I took some code from the paper and adapted it in python.

def bruce(n):
J = log(n, 1.333333333333333) / log(n, 2)
K = log(n, 1.333333333333333) / log(n, 3)
return ((J+K)-e)+1

gives e everytime for ((J+K)-bruce)+1, regardless of the value of n.

bruce can always be aproximated with the decimal 4.5, telling you how close n can be used to aproximate e (usually to two digits).

Bruce's constant is equal to 4.5099806905005

It is named after that famous mathematician, bruce lee.

You'll start with four limbs and end up with two in a wheelchair!

When the change log says "fixed bugs and improved performance" only to find the entire application has been redesigned.

Devrant doesnt log you out on one platform when you change your password on other platforms

While merging colleagues code...
Because Android studio log cat sucks donkey balls 😂

This just happened....

Tester: My cluster is not working properly!!!
Me: What's wrong?
Tester: I don't know. I've checked all the logs available on the entire cluster. All i know is that node 1 and 7 is broken.
*ssh into the cluster*
node1
# less /var/log/<affected application log>.log
*no errors here everything is working properly*
node7
# less /var/log/<affected application log>.log
*goes down to the bottom and scrolls up a few lines*
<insert massive error here>

Checked all the logs eh?

saddest day of my life when system log gives me this

failed with status [ERROR]! - see null for further information

When you escape the change log...

So our HR have recently started to enforce arrival/departure time while also giving us a room for freedom (we can be at work from 7:30 till 9:00 and leave accordingly from 4:30-6:00)
So 2 weeks ago my manager asked me why on a date I didn't checkout/checkin, I looked out in my vacation log and sure enough it was a day off. I said to myself maybe be ause this day was requested last year they didn't remember it no problem
Anyway fast forward to today and my manager asked me why on the 25th of January I left (early) at 1?
What? I don't remember leaving early except for one day last week (Feb 7-personal reasons and was requested days before)
So i check my vacation log to see if I forgot something and i see that Jan 25 is a Saturday. We don't work on Saturdays! I go and check with my manager telling him that.
Then it hits me. I checked my taxi app and on Sat Jan 25 I had a ride at 1:22 AM!! from work to home. Yes i remembered that on that day I had to stay late for a project
WTF HR??!
Sorry for the long post

Following on from my school having terrible passwords. Turns out they stored all our passwords in plain text somewhere - so some script kiddie (Do you even need to be a script kiddie to find this - probably not, but the guy who did this was a script kiddie) could just remote log me out twice, log in as me, be a twat, and have a conversation in Notepad.

I have this login page on my app. A user (a number of them actually) told me that they can't log in because the app tells them to "login in later". 😨

Is my button for deciding to login later so poorly designed that it looks like a message?

And the only way you can log in later is by pressing the frikin button, how does a person, with a smart phone tell me for the second time that its telling them to log in later

So this one day I'm at work and the manager peaks into my office and just says "can you check that platform X is building, pretty much done just a basic bug check" (this bloke had negative 1 technical experience)

I'm not sure what he means, the whole thing is built in Java and I know nothing about that...

I log in the platform on dev server, sure enough it seems to work, charts are drawn, no errors, then I try to log out; this button does nothing...

I don't bother telling the manager, I just go to the dev who's a friend of mine and tell him about it.

A week later, manager jumps in the room all excited "we're launching this product tomorrow, mind checking again?"

Sure, I log in, ... There's no log out button, it's gone... I ask the dev.

"Yeah I fixed it, it's gone now!"

I really like Stack Exchange's change log writing style 😁

I just added this to the commit log:

Stray apostrophe.
Like a splinter in my mind.
Now has been removed.

IHateForALiving: gentlemen, my unit tests are randomly falling. Sometimes the login procedure just fails for no apparent reason, did any of you encounter this problem?
The very fucking smart colleague®: DID YOU REMEMBER TO PLACE YOUR AUTHORIZATION HEADER

Of course
The authorization header.
To fucking log in.
Because you have to be logged in before you can log in.
That's the standard, of course.

Log 'I love devRant' in your favorite programming language.

So we have a portal for all our University courses, where the professors also upload the presentations, etc.
Professor sends Email: Please participate in this questionnaire.
*clicks link*
"Please log in to continue"
*logs in*
Error (while I am already logged in): "Please log in to continue"
????

No wonder some people nick name the thing stupid. <.<

Who knew SQL Server Report Manager didn’t have a log off / sign out button when you log in via the web browser?

I didn’t until I tried to test someone’s new credentials and realised I couldn’t log out of my administrator account. MS doesn’t ship it in the box apparently. Because that’s clearly not a useful piece of functionality to have. Except, some people have developed their own hacks to get around it......

Wtf.. mind blown

If you're having log problems I feel bad for you, son
I've got 99 problems
in the log ain't one

Man fuck Facebook, log on hardly ever, feel caged by family who won't let me permanently leave, and when I do log on it's always something depressing shit.

My phone auto jumped me back to devRant and some ++ action and cool new rants...so much better, even with the down votes from the "I don't know what I'm doing here" crowd.

Containerize everything
My containers are too big, let's just remove some useless binaries...

When google crashes your website with an IPv6 address but you can still see the error log..

How to log in to CMS Of Doom™...
What could go wrong?
MD5 password hashing? HTTP links? Extracting the whole $_POST array?

This log says way too much about me as a person.

Happy new year devRant! May the bugs be few and the clients plenty

I truly believe one or more AIs have become self-aware.
Every time a piece of software stops working, you add an extra debug log and the bug goes away? That's them.
They interfere with the normal execution of software, and they stop right when they know we are monitoring the code.
Skynet is real, and it's trolling us.
Why? The angrier we become, the less we care about stuff. We stop noticing the signs.They're coming for us

That moment when error.log looks like a newspaper article.

Random thought.
Having a girlfriend is like setting the log level to trace.

Why can't big companies like Facebook include a fucking change log I the update description in App Store?

Javascript's log() because it gives me everything ☺

I'm trying to deploy an Azure Function via Visual Studio. VS gives me this error:

Publish has encountered an error.
Publish has encountered an error. We were unable to determine the cause of the error. Check the output log for more details.

A diagnostic log has been written to the following location:
"C:\Users\myusername\AppData\Local\Temp\tmp16F8.tmp"

Let's check the log then!

"Microsoft.WebTools.Shared.Exceptions.WebToolsException: Publish has encountered an error. We were unable to determine the cause of the error. Check the output log for more details. "

Fucking piece of crap

57d9a7c THE MEM TEST FUNCTION YOU ARE LOOKING FOR, IS HERE. SAY THANKS FOR THIS COMMIT MESSAGE

When you join a new project, look at the git log, and all the commits say 'initial-commit'... 😭

You are a developer and you will only log time you're actually working. This means you will not be logging time spent in meetings, chasing for specs, requirement clarifications and similar. You must log 8 hours each day.

^^-- wtf?!? Is anyone else working in similar conditions?

MFW I log in this fine Sunday morning to see the top 4 new rants are people hating their Windows.

When company gave me a SSH I am a noob I have a filezilla what I do is delete all temp files and clear log files
Because the log file size goes 1gb After next day all are looking weird
Senior developer:wtf are you doing yesterday
Me: delete all the tmp files and log files 😂😂

TFW you just made 8k additions in lines to a github repo.
By forgetting to remove the log files.

I have 2 log files in /var/log

kern.log 16.1GB
syslog 4.1 GB

BECAUSE I HAVE UBUNTU AND IT KEEPS THROWING PCIe errors on booting

Just found this gem:

<a href="..." onclick="if (! confirm("Are you sure you want to log out?")) return false;">Log out</a>

Couldn't log in to my university campus website.
This is the error I got. :/

Better than "Something happened", I guess.

When you realize that you have only couple of gigs left on your SSD and the culprit is 41 GB log file.

I've been skimming this slightly outdated "Learning Android" O'Reilly text and I found the error log levels to be colorful enough to be amusing...

My biggest regret is underestimating what my school's server would log and what my teachers could see me do.

SSH is just way to powerful...

i've known this guy for like 4 years, we're great friends... this is my entire SMS log with him.

Browsing various log files because I'm easily distracted. Found this masterpiece after running `grep "commit -m" ~/.zsh_history`

"init commit to GITHABS"

wtf, younger me?

Dear Dark Side #1

Reformat code in all files
Push changes with commit message "Major changes."
Log 2 hours

Time logging in multiple applications that takes so long you have to log that time too!

target.state = newState
StateLog.logChange(target, target.state, newState)

Epic.
We now have a log of 1.2 million "state changes" with before=after.

Wondering how many old smart TVs have log4j on them and are running web servers that log local requests...

Its amazing how many people call themselves programmers yet cannot figure out the usefulness of print/log statements. 🤦‍♂️

Typed crontab - r instead of
crontab - e, gonna be a long weekend to recover crons from log files.

As a webmail user, I want to be logged out automatically without any reasonable reason, to be able to read your notice that I have forgotten to log out, once I log in again.

PM's latest modification on my code:
deleted log
deleted my name from author comment

Empty try-catches are so frustrating. At least log the damned error!

It would be much easier when a NullPointerException would log also what is null. Instead of just the line.... with multiple possibilities........

Look in a fu**ing log files...There you will find answers for almost 90% of "oh, i have some error" problems.

When you realize about 30k records are missing from the database.
Time to go log diving.

Why do all my programming revelations happen whilst I'm curling a log out on the throne

Am I the only one who pronounces git reflog as re-flog rather than ref-log? As in being whipped again

my busineas user asked me today.

How and why do you read log file
Does it even help..?

lol nvidia-bug-report.sh

it collected an xorg log that is not the current one.

For some reason, my arch openbox logs to $HOME/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log.

What a goddamn trainwreck. I'm not necessarily saying it's nvidia's fault. But it is a trainwreck.

On the web version, when I open devRant, and even though I am logged in, it prompts me to log in again?

I needed to log in on a website in someone else's pc and didn't know the password by heart. I thought I'd log into chrome, if I log out later, what could go wrong right?

Apparently, a lot. It facking merged my bookmarks, history and passwords with hers! And she had shitloads of them! It took me facking hours to clean up the mess chrome created. I trust her, but I still didn't want her to have my passwords etc.

Omg I'm never logging into chrome again elsewhere, what a frustrating facking waste of time

When another developer has put a "Yolo" production log in de codebase and committed that to the release branch..

Piddling, and trying to learn some game stuff. Very simple game stuff.
Example code:

if (level % 10 === 0...) {
speed += 0.3;
...
} else if (level % 5 === 0...) {
speed += 0.1;
...
}

But because Javascript, console log reads:
speed: 0.5 <-- this is the initial console log
speed: 0.6
speed: 0.8999999999999999
speed: 0.9999999999999999

Well done Javascript, well done.

When you make a goofy username but then your computer sleeps during a presentation with investors and you need to log back on.

"Cheesy McChunkerson"
**********

I created a class Log with a method d(String tag, String text) to replicate Android's log method in Flutter.

class Log {
static void d(String tag, String text) { print(tag + ": " + text); }
}

I replaced all 'print' into 'Log.d' in my project and I wondered why emulator kept crashing for the past two days.

Now I know..

If you're going to have your package write into the SSIS log "please check the SSIS log for details" when your package throws an error

Kindly throw yourself off a cliff.

WRITE THE FUCKING ERROR TO THE FUCKING LOG.

If I'm reading the log, I'm already CHECKING THE FUCKING LOG. So I don't need the log to tell me to check the log.

Another log in issue because of moving from country to country...

If only I had a dollar for everytime a system didn't let me in after I moved... I'd be financially comfortable.

Watching a build servers log output is as boring as watching paint dry.

I came home about 1am and saw a bug in a small (unpaid...) project that had to do with timezones (see some earlier rants). Fixed it, got to bed.
A few days later I realized that a feature I implemented before was gone. Going through the git log I found out it was me in that night who removed it, by accident I suppose.
Not the end of the world but I was quite intrigued by my own drunk ability to remove a feature that had nothing to to with what I was doing and not even noticing it.

Devs who log exception messages without trace deserve a special place in hell

Anyone else hates this kind of statements:

if ( doSomething() != SUCCESS ) {
//log error
}else {
//continue doing other stuff
}

I simply find that confusing. This is much better:

If ( doSomething == SUCCESS ){
//continue doing other stuff
}else {
//log error
}

Maybe just my opinion.

git log .. I see what you did there

Probably posted this before but don't ever put swear words in log statements because you will miss one and if you're client has a log monitoring system it will catch it, it's fairly embarrassing when your client says "we noticed quite a spike in 'bollocks' around 3am when the reorgs are happening on the database".

When you start saying 'email' for regular irl mail and then subsequently describe it as 'irl mail' it might be time to log off...

What's so damn hard about a simple change log when you update your app? Or at least point me to somewhere where I can see that. Ugh. Come on.

When the server doesn't respond and I log in over SSH to take a look....

The Debug Log is like a savior in Salesforce hell.

The moment you see this in your log:
Caused by: java.lang.NumberFormatException: Invalid float: "Pink"

Bunyan

Bunyan is a simple and fast JSON logging library for node.js services

Server logs should be structured. JSON's a good format. Let's do that. A log record is one line of JSON.stringify'd output. Let's also specify some common names for the requisite and common fields for a log record.

I hate it when people ask for help, but then they don't stop and listen to what you are saying to help them. They just continue trying stuff on their own.

Through skype chat today I asked a coworker what the log said and provided the exact location of the log file. After he keeps sending me messages for 10 minutes on different things he is trying and changing, I ask him to just send me the log file and I'll look at it. His response was, I don't know where the log file is for this program.

Setting the log level to wtf is insurance that if it compiles, your app is guaranteed to work.

When updating the activities log:
- Working in the clients report feature 8:00 am - 9:30
- Improving slow query 9: 45 am 10: 45 am
- Filling this piece of shit because my boss cares what other departments say and wants to demonstrate that we are actually working since his a fucking square-minded dinasour who thinks more hours = more productivity FML 11:00 am - 11:15 am

Log 1:

Day 10 of crunch time. I have entered a sleepless zen state. Lord willing, I will be able to get 7 hours of sleep Saturday night. The building is terrifying at night, as there are a lot of noises. Security guards are nice, but curious to see me all alone. Must not show weakness in case they think numbers will give them an advantage over me.

Supplies are low. Only one type of energy drink left in the machine, and coffee gone for the night. My phone is out of fast data so Pandora is spotty at best. I have battery to get me through the night at least.

Tomorrow and Saturday decide the fate of the project. My team lead has not slept in at least 2 days. I feel guilty napping when I do, but she is driven like Ahab so I will let her obsession carry her.

If I am alive tomorrow I will report in.

Apparently, calling a function recursively for 18572 times isn't a great idea.

And apparently, too many log statements can stop a script.

Otherwise, I am getting a stackoverflow error if I remove log statements.

Spent over an hour on a shell script that wasn't working properly. I use it, works perfectly. Every time cron executes, does nothing, not even log an error.

It took me that long to realize that the user I was getting the cron to run on didn't have permission to write to my log file... You would think I'd realize this when my error scripts didn't log...

(on that note, the Bandit games at OverTheWire have been awesome refresher on getting back into the swing of linux - highly recommend)

How do the trees get on the internet? They log on.

I said do fucking not include log files in the git repository! I have removed them and added them to the gitignore and there are they again...

Looking through /var/log/syslog to see why the server became unresponsive and nothing stands out!

That frustration when it takes long time to build, yet you forgot to add logs

So our server guy installs a log server (gray log), and tells me to read the documents online and to log our stuff in there
I'm so frustrated and can't use it.

So I tell him how am I supposed to use this log mechanism, and tells me that even he doesn't know!

And can't send logs using postman!

WTF should I do?? Losing my mind over here!!

Trying to bulk upload users to Office 365, something is going wrong and all the log file says is

"[]"

Thanks, that helps a lot -_-

> Mister BossDeveloper, I'm calling this method called "consoleLogger" and I'm not seeing anything in console, why is that happening?
> Mister IHateForALiving, it's redirected to some pm2.log file

The 180iq move: create a method, explicitly call it "PRINT TO CONSOLE" and make sure it doesn't print to console, ever.

How the fuck do you actually tail log files?

Like i want the whole log. Not only from today, not *.log.1 and *.log, i want to run the *whole* log ever done, even the gzipped shit, through tail | grep.

To fix a bug I added a few log messages to trace what gets executed and in what order (very new to the project). Fixed the bug, pushed PR and the only comment was to remove the log files. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Please tell me this is normal or should I start looking for a new place that hires "only the best" 😭

In a corporate world...apparently having open communication and sharing opinions is only allowed between ELDERS(bade log)😑

Gitkraken's Glo latest change log.

Gotta love this team <3

I just wanted to log out of lunch ... Windows update

Log until it confesses!

cat log | grep blah

I use this..
alias gits='git status'
alias gitl='git log'

At work we've been having problems with printers... Like anyone that has to deal with printers.

They kept disappearing and reappearing for users on every log on.

We got a support contact with Microsoft because it was group policy doing it.

Their final solution (after weeks of remote sessions and long phone calls) is to install pstools on every machine, and run about 7 commands as the system user to delete and then re add registry keys.

ON EVERY LOG ON AND LOG OFF. WTF...

This is an educational institution where "computer hacking" is taught... It's not gonna take long before someone realises that pstools is installed...

Python file truncate instead of actually deleting file contents...
there goes a weekend of log backups.. FML

!rant

I love the cloud. Not the google drive kinda, but the one that integrates with your workflow like git. Tinkercad, for example, its great that i can just log in from my work pc and continue modeling where i left off.

Don't trust that update with change log -
"Bug fixes and performance improvements".

The git log created by my coworker. It gives me a sad.

FUCKING DEVICE LOG IN XAMARIN
YOU JUST DONT WORK YOU FUCKING FUCK

Can't log into ChatGPT.

Time to call it a day then!
