So please point to all the security holes created by Lamport or Knuth.
I didn't say, by the way, credentialed engineer. I said "think like an engineer". I'd even accept Hacker.
Those who are just "programmers" are essentially data-entry clerks. And EVEN THEY can read Goldberg before doing floating point for at least they can get a hint of the difficulties.
"Java Programmers" writing blogs and websites for "Ruby Programmers" to give hints to "C# programmers" so they don't have to cut-paste from Stack Overflow is harmful. It's noise and addition random bad information that a good programmer, who should be engineering a solution, will have to cull out.
