Purpose

  • Irrigation
gollark: I mean, when someone finds out about an exploit and it's known about, you can fix it. The legal system getting involved probably won't help there. You need issues to be detected in a testing phase or ideally during compilation.
gollark: Clever!
gollark: It runs slowly, is highly subjective, generally has people who have no idea what programming actually is running half of it, and, more importantly, *can only punish you after the fact*.
gollark: * mistakes
gollark: It's an AWFUL tool for dealing with programming mistkaes.
