Description
Humans vs Computers explores the often-overlooked world of human error in software development. From default passwords causing chaos to airlines giving away free tickets, this book reveals the humorous and sometimes surprising stories behind our reliance on computers. In an era where information is tracked, monitored, and categorised by software, humans are struggling to cope with the sheer volume of data. Computers are increasingly making life-changing decisions, often without human oversight. Yet, despite their best intentions, people creating these systems can be fallible, biased, and forgetful. This book offers a fresh perspective on the problems that arise when humans and computers interact. It provides practical insights and heuristics to help software developers identify and mitigate errors, making their creations less prone to mistakes.
