7/17 - Sneezing my head off Friday

first Samuel Johnson gif on turkerhub, ever

 

*pushes potentially disastrous site change at midnight to see what happens*

 

Only potentially disastrous? You've changed man

 

WWWhere were you when CT potentially destroyed the forum

 

...again

 

Me: Darn.. Can't add this feature.. I'm worried this is going to add 200ms to load times
Perf test: It's only adding 30-40ms

Me: This is far more terrifying than if my original guess was correct.

 

Years of experience tells me whatever my worst case scenario is, I can expect the results to be 10x worse.

I am in no way prepared for the opposite. How do I fix what isn't yet broken but clearly is hiding some demon seedy underbelly

 

What the hell...push it now and give everyone who's currently logged on a new badge for "QA for teh forum!"

You can get away with anything if you promise new badges.

 

Oh, it's live. And now I'm just editing on production because I need actual bodies to see results

 

act first. Let us all tell you what’s wrong second.

 

THEN WHERE'S MY DAMN "QA FOR TEH FORUM" BADGE?!?

 

Like this, duh
