I did it.

I finally fucked prod.

And had to do open heart surgery on the service to get it unfucked.

Shit happens. Luckily its internal prod only...

    Doesn't really count until you blow up customer facing prod or drop the database without any backups.

    A rite of passage.

    Where I'm from fucking up prod often just leads to improvements in procedure/testing/structure to prevent it from happening again. (But at the same time - we can't spend all our time making systems fully rigid - that would cost too much - a small prod failure usually is less costly than 2000 hours of dev time)

    I always think we shouldn't blame an individual. If anyone part of our team did it - most of us could've done the same.

    BREAKING PRODUCTION IS A REMINDER TO EVERYBODY THAT THINGS WORKS BECAUSE *WE* HAVE TO POWER TO FIX THEM.

    Just to clarify: "prod" isn't the name of the office bicycle right?

    @Demolishun No, it's not the name of the office bicycle.

    It's the real thing, sadly.
