A story I heard once was that, back in the 60's, IBM was having problems with engineering quality (quelle surprise). This lead to the formation of a testing team called the Black Team. The Black Team developed a culture that prided itself on breaking systems the engineers thought were rock solid. They delighted at making engineers cry. They even started coming to work dressed in all black and sporting sinister mustaches. Consequently, many of the quality issues abated. I don't know if it's true, but it sounds like it might be a good idea. How might we get funding though? Perhaps with a prediction market (people bet on whether scientific hypotheses will be disproved/confirmed)? It could be fun.
