today an engineer found a bug where we over-billed some event types, and made a fix Modem pinged him - a customer flagged this 2 weeks ago, but it got lost in the noise he had no idea! so he followed-up & let them know it was addressed 5 mins of setup → never miss a follow-up

Software isn't inherently unstable. Software sucks because our ability to make changes has outpaced our ability to understand their effects.
