FAA Computer Problems - I swear it wasn't me!

faaI have always refused to take on any clients where an oversight or bug on my part might do something like bring down Wall Street or a region-wide power grid.

So with FAA's computer problems this afternoon bogging down traffic at 40 airports across the country, I am happy that nobody can come knocking on my door.

Julie,

I now feel the same way about medical software, but a one time I made medical hardware and wrote medical softare. The FDA's good manufacturing practices were a PITA, but they probably save many lives. Fortunately, my products never were involved in an incident, AFAICT.
