Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning.

It's a feedback loop, if you make the universe idiot proof people don't feel the need to stop being idiots.

If history is any lesson, the universe will win.
