Spent a whole weekend trying to fix a single pixel in my art

I was finishing a big piece, a cityscape at night, and I zoomed way in to fix a window. I must have clicked something wrong because one pixel on a streetlight turned bright pink. I could not find the layer it was on. I checked every single layer, turned them off and on, used the color picker, everything. My friend came over and we spent Saturday night looking for it, ordering pizza while we searched. It took until Sunday afternoon, about 14 hours total, to finally see it was on a hidden adjustment layer I made days before. Has anyone else lost a crazy amount of time hunting down a tiny glitch like that?

Yeah, that hidden layer stuff gets me every time.

Actually hidden layers are the part that makes sense to me lol. It's the backpropagation math that always feels like a magic trick. Just gotta grind through those partial derivatives.

Wait, you think hidden layers are the hard part? The math for backprop is way worse. It's just a brutal grind to get through.
