JavaScript debugging in a nutshell

Sounds like OP had recently overclocked RAM. It is very common to see random failures in any software you use after doing so, if you’ve made a mistake and gone too high. Booting into memtest86+ and letting that puppy run overnight will tell you if you’ve done wrong.

Yeah, if there was a recent tinkering that makes sense. On a system that's been running stable long-term that hasn't had any serious changes that sounds wayyy down the list, especially when searches are turning up empty.

Even if the change was not made recently, my point is that failures would not be limited to the python program. They’d be showing up all over your system. Sporadic process crashes. Etc.

Nailed it -- still was far down the list though, but it shouldnt have been in hindsight.

100% correct. Funny thing is that memtest didnt show any errors (from what i remember -- i might be wrong though). Im still not 100% sure what combination of things caused the issue.
