But driverless cars do not go through the same requirements as aviation. Before an airplane goes into circulation, it has gone through extremely rigorous testing. An airplane also always has a pilot. The same can't be said for driverle

So, whether a blockchain is used or not, there's no way to know that I'll get what I paid for or an empty text file. So the blockchain serves no purpose in this instance. Asking people to send you money, and them trusting you&#x27

What guarantees me that I’m getting an exploit and not an empty text file?

I have nothing against this tool in particular; I am however quite worried that this kind of tool will just enable this already terrible habit that a lot of developers have; which is to mindlessly commit changes and then make PRs full of &q
