Simple, don't put your trust in computers, treat them with suspicion, and there adopt a policy of backing up anything important to things off the computer. A computer is a tool, nothing more, and the more complex a tool, the more possibility of it going wrong, just like a complex mechanical perhaps clock work device, just think all those logic gates in those silicon chips as mechanical switches running on bearings that wear and break for no reason other than they break from time to time, or a bit of fluff jams in the gearing slowing things down and causing other parts to fail or jump to an incorrect answer through pressure created by the forces involved alone.
Logic gates have on, off, and an indeterminable state, it is the latter state that is the question, and because of this, I don't entirely trust computers, they like mechanical machines can fail for the hell of it and be right as rain in the next instance. Perhaps the indeterminable state is the state nature created, to teach us not to trust tools entirely.
