As we all know, sometimes computers can be a real pain.

Yesterday, I had an issue and called over Jake, the 12-year-old down the street whose bedroom looks like NASA’s backup command center.

Jake tapped a couple of keys and fixed it in seconds.

As he was heading out the door, I asked, “So, what was wrong?”

He said, “It was an ID ten T error.”

Not wanting to sound clueless, I asked, “An ID ten T error? What’s that? Just in case it happens again.”

Jake smirked, “Haven’t you ever heard of an ID ten T error?”

“No,” I said.

“Write it down,” he told me.

So, I did:

ID10T

I used to like Jake… Now I'm going to let the air out of the tires on his bike.

Some of the techs I used to meet at work would call it "Code 16"
for "sixteen inches before the screen". ;)
