    We, as an industry, didn't stop shipping bugs. (Small example: https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/releases)

    And that thorough code review prevents bugs is, at best, a debatable assertion. See e.g. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/publication/code-re...

    It finds _some_ bugs. CI/CD, and a massive investment in automated testing has probably had the largest impact in moving software quality forward. (See e.g. "Accelerate", Forsgren, Humble & Kim)

    Code review is an excellent tool to socialize knowledge and train up more junior engineers, but in terms of preventing bugs, it's low-value.

    The issues I filed in the cvelistV5 repo are also unanswered, so I guess nobody gives a damn.
  • Rage about CVE dataset quality(?)

    118955 entries don't even have an affected vendor/product software field, and neither with a valid version string and/or condition. They only contain plaintext descriptions and no version matching field either. Filed an issue here about it.
