    that’s not even the most incompetent part imo

    the fact that the missile tries to change direction too quickly and just breaks itself apart from the aerodynamic pressure is crazy… it’s literally hobby robotics 101 to put limits on acceleration etc

      It’s just the life of each software dev: don’t need to account for this situation, because the target would never move by 10000kms within seconds. Plus, the buyer would never bring a failed unit back to ask for a refund, so why bother and spend more on development. Unless it’s a liquid fuel rocket, you wouldn’t be able to change Trust and speed once fired.

        but any software engineer knows sensors and inputs aren’t infallible … and neither is your code! you apply limits to account for anomalies, which should just be an expectation
