      >After watching that talk, I would have loved somebody in the audience to point out instance like this https://raygun.com/blog/10-costly-software-errors-history/ and ask for Hickey's comments.
      Needless to say I really don't agree with that list, as history shows the inconsistency, typos, lack basic units and the ability to express them in a computation etc., have been more catastrophic than he believes them to be.

      From the list you cite, only three of 10 errors are caused by "typos", "lack of basic units" and type errors.

      And this is just a particular list.

      Recalling Rich Hickey list, the things that cause more problem in code, from worst to less damaging:

      Domain Complexity
      Misconception

      10x

      Place Oriented Programming
      Weak support for information
      Brittleness/Coupling
      Language model complexity
      Parochialism/context
      weak support for Names
      Distribution
      Resource utilization
      Runtime intangibility
      Libraries
      Concurrency

      10x

      Inconsistency
      Typos

      I'm pretty sure that if we compile a list of real-life cases where the major reasons of failure according to Rich Hickey have caused trouble, the list of examples would be immense, compared to "typos".

    • fundeadJun 2015

      Looks like a top notch implementation that's had some serious effort put into it for solving their unique pain points around deploys and monitoring. My colleagues and I at Raygun (https://raygun.io) have created an error tracking service that from an overview ticks the boxes that Haystack supports, and a whole bunch more besides for dev teams who don't happen to be GitHub :)

      Tools like these become pretty invaluable when releasing code into the wild, and aside from lifecycle benefits like greatly reducing the cost of the maintenance phase, an error tracker can also alert and hand the data needed to fix the bug right to the person who can, greatly increasing dev sanity (no more relying on support ticket ping pong, and removes the onus on the end user to report the bug). Also, surfacing the attack vectors and the frequency of which adversaries attack code exposed to the web is rather eye opening.
