Your applications already sit upon a mountain of non-determinism. A typical web app runs against a database with a genetic query optimizer, on top of a VM with a concurrent generational GC, sharing virtual memory with a dozen other processes, arranged in a massive pyramid of caches, which are competing for CPU time from a multi-core monstrosity of a data-flow engine. The sooner we as programmers embrace stochastic methods, the better.
