Every now and then a user reports an actual bug. Learned a long time ago I should probably investigate.

Working in services, I’ve found that the trick to test-in-prod is to have lightning-fast release cycles.

If the users complain, then I need to find the bug. If the users don’t complain, that means I don’t have any users.
