Boeing: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO)
John Oliver discusses how Boeing went from being a company known for quality craftsmanship to one synonymous with crashes, mishaps, and “quality escape.” Whatever that means.
You're viewing a single thread.
Well said, and re: quality escape, it implies at least two errors. The initial mistake and the mistake in QA not catching the mistake (assuming there is a QA process). We’re fallible humans so we need a QA system to catch the inevitable errors. How tight the QA layer is depends on how mission critical the software or hardware is. A web app is going to have a lighter process than one where failure equals death or disability.
But what if your web app is in control of the plane? JavaScript engineers are plentiful and cheaper after all
And a web app for accessing first aid resources should have a tight process.
