5/20/2019 What Should We Do to Prevent Software from Failing? | Hacker News
Software is a different realm, as other commenters point out. When faced with a problem in the software world,
what's the solution? More software!
The accrediting bodies that regulators might want to form should focus on free test suites and tools for gauging
security. Static code analyzers, auto penetration testers, something along these lines.
Regulate the quality of the software, not the software developers. It's easier to objectively test.
