> Bad software is written, but we can produce good software.

Great example! How do we make our political system more robust like software dev?

Even good software developers make plenty of mistakes and the system overall manages to keep trucking on.

It’s because we have a whole host of techniques to limit our losses - for example at work we have systems in place to automatically roll back recent changes if we detect a problem.

We could apply this technique to legislation by putting in a set of conditions under which the legislation would be automatically revoked.

It is not just politicians - we all have an aversion to taking responsibility for our actions and beliefs.
