"[We] are implementing plans to prevent this bug from happening again" sure makes it sound like this bug is still happening. Should we wait a couple of days before changing passwords? Will it end up in this log right now, just like the old one?
- SahAssar 8y ago~~Sounds more like "we fixed this bug, and will ignore the processes that led to it happening" bullshit to me.~~
- always_good 8y agoAnd this comment sounds more like "DAE hate twitter." Their response is acceptable and textbook. Doesn't really seem like the appropriate place to wage the battle.
- SahAssar 8y agoYeah, bad kneejerk response on my part. Sorry.
- wlesieutre 8y agoThat sounds more like "We're adding a more thorough testing and code-review process for our password systems to prevent developers from accidentally logging unhashed passwords in the future".
- reificator 8y agoNo, it sounds like a reasonable bugfixing strategy. Identify the bug, identify the fastest way to resolve it, then once it's fixed figure out how to ensure it never happens again, and what to do if it does.
- bichiliad 8y agoI think you read "prevent this bug from happening again" to mean "prevent this particular problem from happening one more time", while the blogpost probably means something like "prevent this class of bug from occurring in the future"
