THESIS
An example in the artificial world is the open-source software community. Instead of shielding programs from all errors, developers encourage iterative testing and peer review. This environment enables small bugs and failures to be quickly identified and resolved by a diverse and decentralized group. As these issues are addressed, the software’s structure improves, making it more resistant to future problems. This “fail fast” approach, where exposure to minor setbacks leads to continual refinement, exemplifies antifragility in man-made systems by harnessing the benefits of disorder to drive robustness.
