If, per se, the NSA has your codebase, surely they would be able to find something you haven't tested. Your test cases should be extensive, but it's impossible to make them exhaustive.

I've been burned before by using <script src="..." /> and assuming it would work in all browsers. Instead, it subsumed later tags in a horrible way. I've never used empty-elements in HTML since.

Honest question, is there such a thing as down-vote for submissions (not comments) on HN? After reading a ton of StackOverflow election posts, I believe adding more self-moderation to HN frequenters could help reduce link bait and improve
