    This post warms my Operations-fueled heart. The sense of accomplishment at confirming root cause and finding a new solution to unforseen technical challenges is always rewarding, tempered by the low-key guilt of never being able to predict and prevent all possible issues.

    Preparing for it with backups and knowledge wins the day. Bonus points for implementation of monitoring to know the minute things break.
