Oh cool, another Chrome 0-day abusing integer overflow.

Neat.

Great.

Awesome.

Meanwhile, we'll be writing about how we need to have "high impact libraries that help lots of users" and then give examples like CLI Parsing/JSON Parsing before we sit down and go "we should have some standard library types / functions for integers...?".

v.v.v.v. cool prioritization we do here.

We keep calling ourselves software engineers, but engineers elsewhere advance their industry by analyzing failures and building up tools to stop those and make them standard industry practice!

But we'll just have the same 6 problems, on a regular spin cycle, for like 40 years.

@thephd ever tried issuing a patch for a bridge? Most software today can be “fixed” in a jiffy. That lowers the quality bar tremendously, and thus, also the costs.
@chaos0815 @thephd Bridges are being patched all the time.
Unless they're not.
