It's a bit weird though to not test these at different temperatures beforehand, given that's probably pretty easy to do. Maybe it's more like an alpha test than a beta in practice.
- infogulch 5y agoYou would think that people working in software would understand the idea that your assumptions about the environment your product is in are very often invalidated during real world testing, but this thread doesn't seem to bear that out. Perhaps the mountain of abstractions, automated retries, fault tolerance, and error correction that makes technology as reliable as it is, has made us complacently unaware of just how hard it is to build something new.
