Literally no piece of software is bug-free. Not one. What are you talking about? Of course it’s impossible to test all inputs, because there’s going to be inputs that you can’t even convince of at the time of designing. What if your application suddenly runs at 1000000x the intended speed because hardware improves so much? How do you test for that?
- BoredPositron 2y agoHardware doesn’t change over time…
- AndroTux 2y agoYes it does. It ages. But even if it doesn't, my point still stands. Or are you insinuating that the engineers over at Intel, AMD and Apple don't know what they're doing, because clearly their CPUs aren't flawless and still have bugs, like Spectre/Meltdown.
- BoredPositron 2y agoIt deteriorates, it doesn't change. The functionality is still there and no modern hardware deteriorates to a failing state before it gets obsolete. Yes, I am insinuating that the engineers at intel, AMD, apple and nvidia are incentivized to prioritize expedient solutions over developing more robust architectures, as evidenced by vulnerabilities like Spectre and Meltdown.
