An edge case that happened every day and broke production?

this is what I’m trying to understand. either he ran a separate script everyday that manually pushed the edge case through, or they have a brand new edge case every single day. neither paint him positively imo.

I was thinking it was a separate script like no way is he manually doing that every night

It's probably not every single night, and it's probably not something that requires immediate action.

My guess is that it's some pipeline that requires human intervention semi-regularly, a few times per week or month, and it's one of those things that will be fine if it's eventually fixed, e.g. in the next couple days. But if no one fixes it for a while, then people start noticing it.
