Most people are familiar with “Murphy’s Law”, which is often quoted in explanation of an unfortunate incident, but why does this Law apply so often? When observing a range of events it appears that the harder you push any “system” the more likely it is to fail and so the more we tend to manage the system to try and avoid the inevitable, so Murphy is referring to the symptoms and consequences rather than the cause of the problem. Many examples confirming Harris’ Law can be given, so it may provide some assistance in improving reliability.
