Ask HN: What's the greatest piece of non-dogfooded software?

2 nathancspencer 2 7/7/2025, 9:37:58 AM

It seems like every "great" piece of software, e.g. the operating systems of Apple and Microsoft, the search engine of Google, AWS inside Amazon, Facebook etc was dogfooded.

What's the biggest exception to this rule?

The US Strategic Automated Command and Control System (DDSACCS), which sends emergency action messages to nuclear forces.

Not entirely software .. but an example of a system not used in house .. or at all ... yet.

Greatest? Hmm. Hard to say.

None.
