    As an engineer, I agree.

    You cannot be a layer of security if your attitude is, “this is someone else’s problem”.

    The swiss cheese model of security is what I go by. Yes, no one is perfect, but that’s precisely why every single person needs to actually give a damn. (and why people should be paid enough to care) The more layers of protection from catastrophe, the better.

    Giving in because others are involved is literally Bystander Effect-ing your job effectiveness. Only idiots should be OK with, “this is someone else’s fault.”

    No, this is also other peoples’ fault, but make no mistake: the engineer is on that list.
