Do you think this is a tooling problem or more about incentives and how engineers are trained now?

I think the article is making the point that it is a cultural problem about cost cutting and short term thinking.
Yeah, agreed - short-term incentives seem to drive a lot of this. Do you think tools can help, or is it mostly cultural?
Give me a python script that takes a string representing the output of a sha256 algorithm and a plain string and compares if the sha256 of plain strig matches the sha256 provided.
You can't fix a cultural problem with tooling. I don't understand why silicon valley hasn't taken this lesson to heart yet.
