When I was first starting out as a professional developer 25 years ago doing web development, I had a friend who had retired from NASA and had worked on Apollo.

I asked him “how did you deal with bugs”? He chuckled and said “we didn’t have them”.

The average modern AI-prompting, React-using web developer could not fathom making software that killed people if it failed. We’ve normalized things not working well.
