Ya know, the Roman tradition was, you gotta stand under the bridge while the army marches over it. If it collapses, you die too. Maybe there's something to having nudes of that dev.

Real engineering is expensive. And hard. moving atoms around is tough. I've never cut stone, but I've melted and cast copper and aluminum. That's real and dangerous work.

Computation is cheap and plentiful. And I kinda like having full control of "stuff". But maybe we do need licensing or personal liability. If I could wave a magic wand, and make that exist, I don't really know what rules I'd put in place.

How do you think people should get skilled up?

You didn't ask me but I can give you my answer: not on prod and with a lot of reviews!

Most users of these sorts of app don't pay enough attention to security to care. Do you really think that most developers are any better?

Most developers are just normal people who happen to be able to write a bit of code and convinced someone to employ them. Just like anyone else, far too many live under the delusion that "it can't happen to me."

Translation: making them eat their own dogfood and risk their own embarrassment won't help; they would have to know better, first! =)
