"Trust but verify" is a description of speculative execution.

  I now need so badly a situation I can bestow a "Speculatively execute!" advice to someone. Otherwise before "Trust but verify" became popular, "Put no faith in words" was apparently the go to for Russian leaders. Not as catchy indeed.

    The reason why it became popular in Russian in the first place is mostly just because it rhymes nicely...
