> Someone just slipped a bug into production. We now have $12,399 per minute in transactions that will not be processed. CEO needs a report for a board meeting in 20 minutes. Junior dev didn't show up and four team members were waiting for the commit he was supposed to have in yesterday.
While it's helpful to have rockstar devs that fix that kind of situation in 5 minutes, I'd say you still have to have boring people who test thoroughly, document properly, and have deployment procedures and rollbacks figured out, none of which is something you identify from a Leetcode type test; yet these practices which lower the chances for that scenario to happen in the first place.
