Give that the higher contrast of black on white. (I prefer the first to emphasize the goal.)

But if you're trying to emphasize the "Software that looks like it works" the other is better.

Also, add some glitch effect to the "software that looks like it works". The way like AI slop constantly messes up fonts.

I would give the big circle more of a bubble look. You know, like the AI bubble that's about to burst. ❇️

so imo the smol group should have a bigger non-overlap with the bigger group

That top left zone with "works but doesn't appear like it should" is often the most important code to understand, cause the really elegant solutions are tucked in there along with the essential but fucked up things that actually keep your company working.

I think because black text and lines is a default for 'signage'?

Could get a color-agnostic version of the same effect with hatching, but it would be a pretty big disruption of the existing visual.

To my eyes, the black text and circle is more prominent. I'd want to look at it through a color blindness tool, and choose a color combo that emphasizes the "works" circle in all conditions.

Although maybe a more "positive" colour like green or .. something that's not usually coded for "danger".

For a smaller sticker (or one viewed from further away) writing and small cycle are probably too small.
I played a bit with the design and noticed that it is pretty hard to produce something balanced, yet easier to read in the same space.
Here is my attempt:
