This one of the sanest descriptions of the divide on Gun Control that I've seen. (And it's sanity from the "other side" which is even better!)

This might not be as easy or practical as it sounds. Replacing an existing power supply that is known to match the requirements of the system with one that was cobbled together from modern components is inherently risky. You're eithe

A 1 line change can be just as dangerous as 400 line one. I'd argue that alot of the so called "small" changes are just as tricky to review as a big one simply because the context of what is being changed isn't really

While stress levels might be some degree of indicator, there are lot of other things that should make this kind of thing practically useless. Skill level/experience is going to make a really big difference.

That's only true for a small subset of applications. Beyond the code that the programmer is actually writing themselves and direct language features, Python (and most modern languages with good library support) makes a standard librar
