software failures

I understand that machines fail for numerous physical reasons, however, I’ve never understood how computer or programs that were working fine all along can suddenly crash or break down if there’s no moving parts and the code hasn’t been otherwise recently patched or updated. This has bugged me for over 25 years and it finally occurred to me that I should it.

There are ways to improve this and almost nobody has even heard of them.
