I rather randomly met a woman with a similar sort of background and trajectory as I have: trained in physics, got sucked into computers via the brain drain. She programmed the models for radiation dosing in the metaphorical descendants of Therac-25. I asked her just how often it was brought up in her work and she mentioned that she trained under someone who was in the original group of people brought in to analyze and understand just what happened with Therac-25. Fascinating stuff.
