I've seen this first hand, unfortunately this doesn't escape the hiring market reality. Many documents and source files are littered with (very) bad code from an 3 months employee that couldn't do better before leaving considering the extreme size of the project.

I wonder if someone can pull an #ElonMusk on the DO-178 to slim things down in order to have better control.

ps: planes fly with bugs, see the DreamLiner, Airbus ones aren't free from them either, employees know this. (I guess they travel by train)

The train brake control systems are written in ... C.


Yeah but usually when two trains collide, you don't have the time to see it coming.
