Grok 4 cracked a Docker debugging puzzle that o3 missed

lldb behaved differently through Python in Docker than on their own Linux box. Grok 4 traced it to how address sanitizer works in each environment. They're impressed so far.

What they did

Running lldb through Python behaved inconsistently between Docker and their local Linux machine. They asked Grok 4 to help solve it.

How it went

Grok 4 traced the problem to differences in how address sanitizer works in the two slightly different environments. o3 hadn’t caught it, and they say they’re impressed so far.
