Chris: We now know the State of Nevada has 20 million Lines Of Code, as shown by the following calculation of what it would take without the automated fix:

100,000 LOC per year per programmer * 100 programmers * 2 years

So, with the fix, it should take 20 hours (at 1 million LOC per hour) and no programmers. Sounds like a no-brainer decision to me ... unless there's something we're not being told.

>>A smaller test succeeded in December and the state is awaiting additional results.<<

At least we now know that SOMETHING works. Unfortunately, there was no information supplied to define what "smaller test" means. Maybe 1 program, or 1 subroutine, or 1 Line of code?

Maybe that rumor'd alien of a few posts back was actually the remains of the poor programmer who was running the tests?
