Got a crash report on the Mac SE from @scj
I've seen the MacsBug crash screen many a time over my life, but at most I just looked at the name of what function crashed. For work I only ever used modern debuggers that show your variable contents inline
Now is the first time I'm decoding the registers, deducing what values were in my code at the time of the crash. I used to think "how could a register dump be of use to anyone, it's just random hex” but I'm starting to see thru the Matrix now… 💃

@kalleboo @scj I recognize those types of dumps. Always fun to see offsets, very old school :)
