Heroes

Read Original

The author recounts a story of heroically fixing a critical P0 iOS push notification outage, only to later realize they were celebrating a failure of process. The article critiques the 'hero culture' in tech that rewards last-minute firefighting over robust engineering, testing, and planned releases, arguing it often masks underlying problems.
