The HA false alarm caused by hitting the wrong button excuse is total bullsh*t, and here is why .... [View all]

[KelleyKramer]

On my computer (actually every computer I have ever owned) if I accidentally hit the delete button for a file, any file... there is a follow up confirmation. Usually a pop up box that says ....

"This will delete the file, ARE YOU SURE?"

That follow up is for any file, even a crummy little text file..

And they don't have any follow up or confirmation for a nuclear attack alert button?

Really?

And even if someone did believe something that stupid and crazy...

We have been under threat of nuke attack for well over 50 years. You would also have to believe that no one, anywhere, at any US facility, in 50+ years has EVER accidentally hit the alert button

And if this excuse is true, then that makes this even worse. Instead of firing whoever made the mistake, they should just be reprimanded. And then everyone involved in approving this systems planning and set-up should be fired.

So if we are to believe this bullshit excuse ....

That puts the problem much higher up the food chain
