Security.
It needs to be built into every phase of computing, starting with the CPU micro-code, going through network protocols, up to the topmost JS framework layer.
Screw up one piece and you may end up with a major vulnerability.
Many software project owners avoid it due to complexity. To some extent, even academia sometimes eschews it.
- sidntrivedi 7y agoUmm..what about Compilers and their implementation? Isn't it hard? PS: I find them the hardest.
- nikofeyn 7y agocompilers do a known thing. security means protecting against unknown things.
- sidntrivedi 7y agoI get your point. Seconded.
