- heisenbug — (jargon) /hi:'zen-buhg/ (From Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle in quantum physics) A bug that disappears or alters its behaviour when one attempts to probe or isolate it. (This usage is not even particularly fanciful; the use of a debugger sometimes alters a program's operating environment enough that buggy code, such as that which relies on the values of uninitialised memory, behaves quite differently.) In C, nine out of ten heisenbugs result from uninitialised auto variables, fandango on core phenomena (especially corruption of the malloc arena) or errors that smash the stack. Opposite: Bohr bug. See also mandelbug, schroedinbug.
- hindenbug — (humour) A catastrophic, data-destroying bug, after the 1937 Hindenburg airship disaster.

- schrödinbug — (jargon, programming) /shroh'din-buhg/ (MIT, from the Schrödinger's Cat thought-experiment in quantum physics) A design or implementation bug that doesn't manifest until someone reading the source code or using the program in an unusual way notices that it never should have worked, at which point it stops working until fixed. Though (like bit rot) this sounds impossible, it happens; some programs have harboured schrödinbugs for years. Compare heisenbug, Bohr bug, mandelbug.
