Please, if you're going to blame some group of people for an awful tragedy, software engineers are only a small part of a very large machine. There must be no single point of failure, anywhere - especially when it's a matter of limb, life and death.https://twitter.com/dibblego/status/1104850328107704320 …

But I didn't just blame the programmers. It's causal, all the way up to the method by which aviation software is certified, for which I have zero patience. It's systemically broken. Do you think my rant about aviation software will fit in this box?

No, I don't and wouldn't expect it to. I'm sorry if I took your tweet out of context (I did browse around before quoting you, but didn't really see anything to indicate that - unless I completely misread your tweet which is def. possible).

The state of aviation software is corrupt and incompetent at cost financially and to life. I flew an aeroplane yesterday, and day before, unusual attitude recovery. I used Haskell to do ground calculations, which carries certain correctness guarantees. My patience has ended.

We cool. We, we humans, can do so much better. People don't need to keep dying, and costs don't need to keep inflating. But there are competing interests.
