- Learn from other people’s experiences/mistakes.
- Continuous improvement, read tech magazines from your field (sysadmin, programming, pilot, etc...)
- If you see something, say something! Be a whistle blower!
- Think ahead for problems, grow your spidey sense
- Don’t let people bully you out of your real concerns. Maybe you won’t have a space shuttle blowup on your conscience for a problem you pointed out and was ignored, but don’t let things go if you know they are wrong.
- Be honest with yourself, know if you are pushing past safety limits or taking too many risks. Be sure you can explain what you did or didn’t with a straight face.
- For aviation, wouldn’t it be nice if it were all open source so that researchers can help the FAAs of the world check for bugs? Did Airbus ever fix some of the software issues I mentioned? (never mind Boeing)
