Also , I do primarily scientific computing and a lot of my code is written in C . I don ' t know the first thing about safety , but KR set me up nicely to understand all the code that ' s been hanging around the lab for like , 15 something years . And it also helped me write code that was fast . <| sep |> We know for a fact that wizards kept slaves and nobody did shit about it . It ' s canonical . <| sep |> Your reasoning about reliability appears to be untrue for cryptocurrency software and has been rigorously rejected in related fields By assuming independence one can obtain ultrareliablelevel estimates of reliability even though the individual versions have failure rates on the order of 104 . Unfortunately , the independence assumption has been rejected at the 99 % confidence level in several experiments for low reliability software . why . htmlMoreover , for consensus software inconsistency itself is a serious failure . Increasing the average reliability at the expense of consistency is almost always a serious security problem . Who cares if its ' up ' when your funds are all gone ?
