Hello, People, programmers, computers, software, design patterns, systems, and infrastructure are constantly changing, often being reinvented. As such, will never be stable. Concrete of a type is always the same and therefore predictable. One can state with certainly that a concrete slab will perform to design. This will ever be possible in IT. Many commercially produced software products donĀ¹t have any warranty. Many even state that the software is not warranted for any function or purpose. ... The fact that the software does something that one thinks it should do is incidental. Regards, -- Jason Muskat | GCFA, GCUX - de VE3TSJ ____________________________ TechDude e.

We still see banks vulnerable to trivial XSS attacks and software broken by buffer overflows. How do we compare to other industries like construction, engineering, finance? What I am trying to figure out is how mature we are and how long will it take for to get stable?
