Hey Griff it happened just like you said in your response in The Weird and The Wonderful[^] in 2019.
I had just responded to kmoorevs post about double click behaviour with users.
I had discovered in the logs that 3 users out of 250 would occasionally encounter errors.
Turned out that they were Olympian super fast double clickers.
I couldn't click as fast as them in order to replicate the issue until I practised and practised.
The other day I had another issue and found that it wasn't just 2 users out of 250, but most of them including me, but only at one site.
It was caused by switch bounce in the mouse. It was a new one as well.
Anyhow now it all works with a bouncy mouse as well as a good one now.
(It was really my fault though. My bad. It should of handled it.)

I have a great gaming mouse but if I click "dropping" my finger on the button it will generate two clicks very very near to each other.

I am hoping that, that button is the fire button.

It's hard to believe that most users have defective switches  but at least you've resolved it.

It was one machine that all of the operators share. So just one mouse with issues.

To be honest I got pry for investigate and ic for one hundred and thought pecuniary was worth a shot - my speed solving methodology was developed from ~25 years of commuting into the city of London determined to try and finish the Telegraph cryptic before I arrived at Waterloo ( 35 minute journey )

An aged one wonders:
I have never (ever) come close to solving even one of these. Does that mean that any program/script I have ever written is sadly lacking? Real programmers can solve all of them?
I should retire, I wish I had commented my code.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

Probably not - but many developers like puzzles, and even grew up with physical crosswords.
These take practice, a reasonable vocabulary, and a twisted mind. It's probably the first and last you are missing!

Hmmm. Would a twisted mind be better than no mind at all?

I was going to build something out of legos and a little ESP32-CAM that could recognize my cats and chase them around, but my cam arrived and the little thing is broken - everything looks red/pink and hopelessly grainy. Something's not right. It can't do cat scanning without a good camera. meh. That's what I get for not ordering the modules in multiples at a time.
I do intend to build this, so long as I can use my hubby's legos - i may have to splice into his kit. should be a fun project, but i can't start it now until I get good hardware.
