 			<text>Fail fast – errors in the code should be reported during build time or at least on first execution – do not silently continue if given error would lead to failure later in another part of the code – bad weak coupling leads to difficult debugging.</text>
+			<note>Avoid silent failures: e.g. if the computer runs out of disk space and the text editor is unable to save the file, it should immediately report error and allow user to choose different destination instead of silently failing and leaving the file empty.</note>
