I disagree.
You can certainly fix known knowns, but you can't fix unknown unknowns. Sometimes its safer to simply apply a rule that you have confidence will work everywhere than fix that may introduce unsuspecting problems.
- mark-r 6y agoHow do you get that confidence without tracking down the root cause?
- SkyPuncher 6y agoI never said that you don't track down a root cause. Once you identify a root cause, you can assess the scope. "allocate 5 bytes more than you need" is a pretty broad reaching fix. I'd be very hesitant to implement it without proper time to fix.
