i've said this before but i'm gonna say it again: it's *fascinating* watching the software industry rediscover why best practices exist in real time

@eniko u say rediscover but are they actually *learning* anything

the solution in this article doesn't seem to fix the problem but only spread blame more widely when the problem occurs

@mcc @eniko it's very possible they will discover it and proceed to cover up and do absolutely nothing or shift the blame

"they" being any corp ever

we don't think we do believe that, we just would like to...
