rickasaurus · x · 2026-10-01
rickasarius argues humans were always bad at software—even the best of us—and fears the same holds in math. Pushing back on claims that AI harms software, he points out the Linux kernel logged 1000+ CVEs in a single day, with the world's most respected programmers writing exploitable code daily and reviewers passing it through. The takeaway: quality problems predate AI and reflect inherent human engineering limits.
