  1. @frostflow That's how it always starts. Then I go to bed. Then comes the screaming, and the fire.

    1. @bitshift You laugh but it's actually pretty stressful. it's easy to understand how it puts most admins off of making changes to their sites.

      1. @ceruleanspark Oh yeah. I only maintain a personal site and one static-only project page, and I still worry that I might've horribly broken something for a few hours after making changes, even if I've tested them across the browsers I have available. I can only assume that worry is magnified a thousand-fold for a big, dynamic site like this one. :(

        1. @bitshift Plus, the yelling and the feeling of dissapointment.

        2. @bitshift It's at the point where I wake up, grab my phone, check my email and visibly cringe whilst I wait for the downtime reports and the yelling and threatening.

            1. @bitshift That's where my optimisation fetish comes from. The hope that if I get it working well enough I can just disappear.
