"Everyone has working code until the demo"

Not two days ago I was asked if my demo was ready and I was telling the PM that it doesn't work and I'm looking to see why.

During that conversation I was making some settings changes and didn't take note of them. Demo worked. Couldn't tell you what I did and I took a shit load of screenshots just in case it decided "Nah, I'm good" and bounces in two weeks.

So the code was fine as it was working before and suddenly didn't. I wasn't sure if I made a code change and nothing in the change logs showed any changes I did would've broken this.

It was a setting in our VM's that was reset during forced restart and I still don't' know what setting that is.
