"The important point here is, that the development team does all this for their own benefit and among each other!

“[Younger programmers] might insist that everything is new and different nowadays, that the rules of the past are past and gone. If that is what they think, they are sadly mistaken. The rules have not changed. Despite all the new languages, and all the new frameworks, and all the paradigms, the rules are the same now as they were when Alan Turing wrote the first machine code in 1946. But one thing has changed: Back then, we didn’t know what the rules were.”

A system’s being “fail-safe” means not that failure is impossible or improbable, but rather that the system’s design prevents or mitigates unsafe consequences of the system’s failure. That is, if and when a “fail-safe” system “fails”, it is “safe” or at least no less safe than when it was operating correctly.

There is competition between every person and this mountain.

> We could, for instance, begin with cleaning up our language by no longer calling a bug a bug but by calling it an error. It is much more honest because it squarely put the blame where it belongs, viz. with the programmer who made the error.
