Yes, I was being tongue-in-cheek.

The process for avoiding bugs is actually quite similar to the process
for finding and fixing them (credit goes to Ota for summing this up
succinctly): identify your assumptions and isolate them, then verify
that all of these assumptions hold, both independently and in concert.
Think about what might happen if they do not hold.
