Welcome and congratulations on choosing a wonderful hobby, career, and passion. I love programming! And yes, some software can be really dangerous. I guess it’s bad to apply military-like defensive practices against code that (for instance) makes Alexa tell you a joke. But I do think it makes for a nicer life if you apply defensive programming to all software. I know I don’t get nearly as many production bugs or weekend calls as other devs do. I guess it’s a trade off. But yes, I prefer to be mindful.
Again, welcome and thank you for your comment. 😊
