Re: How is this possible? - Real programmers don't each Quiche

I am not saying it is impossible, I am just saying it is unlikely.

I have yet to see a large project that is bug free, and I doubt there exists one in the wild.

If you have one.. well, you don't KNOW about the bugs, but you should know there are bugs.

This is a well known issue, nothing new here, but if you language of choice is C/C++ chances are, you have potential buffer/memory issues.
