internationally approved symbol for a glitch?
-
I am sure many of is have a whiteboard for informally recording significant events for quick visual reference. For fun (mainly) but also because its really handy we add a simple little emoji style graphic to show what kind of event it is. So a bug gets a nice little picture of a bug, a piece of software with a sunset date gets a setting sun and so on. Means we can tell whats what, and waste five minutes drawing it. Yesterday I found a data issue caused not by a bug but by a glitch. A power cut had thrown some data out. We should record this but we don't know what a glitch looks like :~. We can't possibly put it on the board without a picture. Please help with your suggestions.

I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats. His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

relatively small, but only if compared to a star

rotation != vibration And where are the two death rays it emits at the poles?

The vibrations refer to the starquake, not the rotation.

I also don't show the electro-magnetic field, the gravitational field, and the [Cheela](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon's\_Egg) living on the neutron star. This is a suggestion for a glyph, not a peer-reviewed article on Relativistic Physics!

A glitch is also the name for what happens when a neutron star undergoes a "starquake", changing the frequency of its rotation. Perhaps a picture of a small, vibrating ball...

Like this: its clear; its dissimilar from other symbols; its easy to draw with klutzy IT fingers; and most importantly its really geeky.

like the hand with the zappy fingers - retains concept that glitch may be down to user activity after all

Another good suggestion, easy to draw and good back story.

Too bad. Should you still write the article, perhaps you should also mention the Hirogen[^] who love to stroll on the surface.
Quote:
...The Hirogen body armor had internal life support, with a breathing apparatus over the mouth and nose, and it can protect a Hirogen hunter while seeking prey in most hostile environments, including the surface of a collapsed star.
Good that they have life support when gravity crushes the protons into the neutrons. :-)

Actually the first gremlin (again from thenounproject) is quite excellent!

Not sure I like it for glitch but it is excellent, definitely going to use it somewhere.

Not sure how you are collecting data but this actually sounds to me as though a bug has been exposed. If the application/system has the assumption that once a write is issued the data has been saved - this 'glitch' has exposed that as a bug within the system. It sounds like the bug that has been exposed is that a save is not saved until it has been checked. A great opportunity for a unit test!

First thing to come to mind when you say "Glitch" is The Matrix, so perhaps a pictuer of Neo's head (complete with cool sunglasses) will do the job :cool:
Nah, the black cat was the glitch. So a drawing of a cat.

Many moons ago, we referred to an anomaly seen in an oscilloscope display as a glitch. "look at the output of that flip-flop, it's not steady, there is a glitch in it". I would suggest a lightening bolt kind of icon. Maybe with a beard. :)
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.
