Yeah. As a hardware engineer that has, over many years, transitioned to a software engineer, I always assume my software is buggy. I can't believe how often it turns out it's hardware like a bad cable or something. My rule of thumb is "If it always happens, it's probably software. If it's intermittent, then it's likely hardware. Or not."
Pournelle's first rule of debugging is, "The first thing you check is the cables."
