It's almost like we should try to stick to languages where creating concurrency bugs is nearly impossible, thereby pre-empting an entire class of bug that might have resulted in deaths



What language would be a good example of that?


any functional one with immutable data would suffice. my current favorite is Elixir, but others fit this bill.

There is still the matter of dealing with mutable stores like databases, but well-written code would make that impossible as well, plus permit tests to run concurrently
