It's mildly depressing and comforting at the same time to realize that none of the code I've written or am writing will even remotely have anything close to 'catastrophic consequences'. At worst, the number of visitors will drop to 0 for a short while, or clients/internal users won't be able to do their job for said short while. This will quite possibly impact the bottom line of company that relies on that particular site/app/system, but any effect will be lost in the noise (and probably even underestimated, because that's how this happened in the first place!). While it's sort of nice that there are real-world stakes to the worst-case scenario, it's also both comforting and depressing to contemplate how relatively meaningless these stakes really are, personally.
