I used to work in a really big project written in C and C++ (and even some asm in there) and the build was non-deterministic. However the funky part was there was a C file in all of this that had a couple dozen of commented nee lines with a line at the top saying: ‘don’t remove this or the build will fail’ That remains my favorite code comment to this day.
I’m pretty sure that if you knew you would get cancer from someone else who has it at a very high probability of transmission you would avoid it at all times.
This is a very poor comparison. At best it dimishes how bad cancer is and at worst you’re also giving terrible advice to people who care about not having their life destroyed by covid.
