@asteris i am in software engineering... -
@GRAFIXEL good, then it's your opinion that no malpractice clauses should be attached to said software? -
@asteris such clauses cost a lot of money.but engineering has own interest to avoid bugs,as else they go out of business soon -
@GRAFIXEL and in this case? Is it within acceptable parameters for the IRS to fudge 660k tax returns due to a bug? -
@asteris of course this is huge debacle.but i don't know the parameters of underlying contract.software vendor likely looses the job -
@GRAFIXEL but should there, or should there not be a clause covering criminal liability in cases like this? -
@asteris i see no crime here. intention is important
