A Programmer's Oath: Protect User, Data, and Truth
2025-09-02
Inspired by the Latin motto "Primum non nocere" (First, do no harm), the author proposes a new motto for programmers: "Tuere usorem, data, veritatem" (Protect user, data, truth). This emphasizes prioritizing user experience, ensuring data safety, and upholding truth in the face of technology's potential for misinformation. The author seeks feedback and discussion on this proposed ethical guideline.
