Programming

I’m going to probably be downvoted to Hell, but I disagree wholly that it’s the language’s fault that people can exploit their programs. I’d say it’s experience by the programmer that is at fault, and that’s due to this bootcamp nature of learning programming.

I’d also blame businesses that emphasize quantity over quality, which then gets reflected in academia because schools are teaching to what they believe business wants in a programmer. So they’re just churning out lazy programmers who don’t know any better.

There needs to be an earnest revival of good programming as a whole; regardless of language, but also specifically to language. We also need to stop trying to churn out programmers in the shortest time possible. That’s doing no one any good.

That’s my two cents.

Oh yes, improve security by mandating that everyone uses higher level languages that encourage importing libraries.

I hate to pull the AI card, but AI has a better chance of catching low level language type issues than forcing people to use tools they didn't want to has of accomplishing anything positive.
