No "silver bullet" will ever compensate for incomplete and/or erroneous requirements.
IMO, incomplete requirements are easily discovered duting testing. Erroneous requirements, OTOH, are due to faulty behavioral expectations. The latter can be found automatically in a temporally deterministic system. It is because the discovery of temporal expectations can be automated in a temporally deterministic system. The use of timing watchdogs will automatically trigger an alarm when an expectation is violated during testing. In fact, in such a system, the more complex the software is, the more correct it gets. The reason is that complexity increases the number of temporal constraints. As a result consistency increases. Timing is the most important thing in the construction of reliable software.
The reliability problem can be traced directly to the 150+ year old algorithmic software model. Yes, it is as old as Charles Babbage and Lady Ada Lovelace. Mainly, the algorithmic model cannot guarantee the execution order of software elements. Deterministic timing is a a must for reliability. Switch to a non-algorithmic, reactive, synchronous, and inherently parallel software model (see link below) and the problem will disappear.
After all, that's how we deal with all cosmological phenomena we don't understand - prefix it with "Dark" and you're all set!
You must not question the theories of the gods. Invent more voodoo crap to hide the inadequacies but never question the gods. That's how science works.

Wake me up when they come up with a computer program that can beat all human Go players without an exhaustive search...
I agree. This is a worthless pursuit. What will it prove? Where is the scientific merit? I don't see any. Even if you could have a fast enough computer (in 10 or 20 years) that can use an exhaustive search algorithm to beat a professional human player, all one would need to do is increase the board size to say, 90x90, and the human player would kick the computer's silicon ass.:-D
ahahaha... You're just an ass kisser in my book. I know. I meet ass kissers like you all the time. Kissee, kissee... Haysoos Martinez! The time traveling crackpot's been dead for a while, now. Stop kissing his ass. ahahaha...
PS. Nothing can move in spacetime. You can pack that up your ass. How about that? ahahaha... AHAHAHA... ahahaha...
Funny but does it require genius to understand that nothing can move in spacetime, by definition? It's just simple logic, IMO. This is the reason that Sir Karl Popper called spacetime, Einstein's block universe in which nothing happens. Don't take my word for it, look it up! Apparently, our brilliant Spanish astrophysicists don't understand simple logic. Otherwise, they would have figured out that a time dimension is nonsense to start with. The universe is 4-dimensional and it is already spatial. A time dimension is crackpottery.
If your multicore CPU or concurrent programming language or operating system does not support fine-grain, instruction-level parallelism in a MIMD (multiple instruction, multiple data) environment, it is crap. Sorry.
Funny but seriously, my advice is, don't buy a multicore CPU until they get it right. If a multicore CPU or concurrent programming language or operating system does not support fine-grain, instruction-level parallelism in a MIMD (multiple instruction, multiple data) environment, it is crap. The computer market is looking for fine-grain parallel systems that are fast, secure, easy to program, auto-scalable and bug free. The crap that I see out there does not even come close to delivering what the market wants.
Quantum superposition is not a law of physics. It's just a stupid guess. Very stupid guess, IMO. I see you failed to address the fact that QM is empirically testable.
So what? That does not mean that they know what they're talking about. My dog is a good predictor too, you know. He can predict that there is going to be food in his plate as soon as I start opening a can of doog food. So far, his theory has not failed. Big Deal! The Mayan priests had a system that could predict lunar and solar eclipses tens of thousands of years forward and backward. Does that mean that they understood gravity? I think not. Newtonian gravity can do the same yet Newton was the first to admit that he had no clue as to the actual mechanism of gravity. Don't try to force your crackpot hoaxes down people's throat on the basis of the correct predictions made by QC. Not everybody belongs to your religion. Get a clue.
If you had more than a passing knowledge of quantum mechanics, you'd know that superposition is empirically observable.
Yeah, right. The QC hoaxers and bullshitters will always win more grant money as long as they have Star-trek physics fans like you on their side. Why don't you all jump in your wormhole spaceships and zip into a parallel universe? Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Parallel universes. Isn't that the explanation that the crackpot lunatic and quantum computing champion, David Deutsch, is using for QC? Yes sir. Billions and billions of parallel universes that nobody can ever observe. I guest impiricism is only needed when you crackpots are attacking the other religions, eh? Yeah, that's it. A stupid nerd religion is what you have.
How much do you want to bet that this is pure bullshit and that nothing will ever come out of it? This is just another plea for funding. Quantum computing is the biggest scientific hoax/bullshit in the history of science. Physicists have no clue as to why nature is probabilistic and yet, they feel qualified to claim (without any evidence to back it up) that certain quantum states are superposed. What they are are claiming is that states are suppoerposed but you can never observe supperposition because, as soon as you do, it causes a collapese of the wave fucntion and the superposition disappears. This reminds me of a kid who insisted that he could jump as high as a mountain but only when nobody was looking. Yeah, sure. Whatever happened to empiricism? Voodoo physics is all this crap is.
So yeah, go ahead and mark me as a troll but I am right, goddamnit! It's all bullshit.
