    Not checking for errors is not "progress" its indiscipline aided by
    languages and tools that permit it to occur without issuing errors. It's
    why software "engineering" is at best approaching early 1950's real
    engineering practice ("hey gee we should test this stuff") and has yet to
    grow up and get anywhere into the world of real engineering and quality.
