[sqeaky]

I am curious why people are downvoting me. It seems obvious to me to that proving software is correct is hard or impossible. It building and passing the tests help to increase confidence in correctness, but doesn't prove it.

No one disagreed with this comment and it is one of the least controversial thing I have said on HN. I think I have a downvote fairy, someone who just downvotes everything I say. If so, why bother? If I don't have one then when you downvoted me, why didn't you respond?
