Great moments in software engineering
Off Barbados, 1673: Puzzled and distracted by his parrot repeatedly shrieking "Pieces of Nine!", pirate captain James "Mad Jim" Conroy does not hear his lookout's warning of an approaching flotilla of Spanish warships. His ship is sunk with all hands in the ensuing battle. This is believed to be the first communication failure caused by a parroty error.
