depends on what kind of code we're talking about.
are we talking about my code for a video sharing and live streaming website? nope.
are we talking about my code on a microcontroller whose only purpose is to physically monitor and calculate a small number of things? probably, yes.
there's a huge difference between the two, both in the processes behind them and the end result of the development cycle. the code on important things where lives are on the line, like a space shuttle, is simple stuff that has been tested and combed over a lot.
bridges are very singular in purpose and only need to not fail at what they're supposed to do. most software needs to not fail at what its not supposed to do, as well as what it is supposed to do.
