I do not think all blame should be removed from the programmers that easily. Programmers should think about the ramification of their code and not just blindly implement bad specifications which will get people killed. Now it is possible that Boeing is such a toxic place that any disagreement is silenced, but I do not think we should automatically give the programmers a pass just because it is a specification issue.
- quickthrower2 8y agoThe question is who is going to blow the whistle because that is what it comes down to. It’s just not a simple case of doing a better job. It’s going to need someone prepared to lose their job. If it was a simple case of “hey boss I think something is wrong here” and they listened and acted I think that would have happened. Something must be culturally wrong I am guessing.
