Honestly, Friday deploys are the best deploys. You’re extra motivated to get things out, fewer people will be around to complain if things are going wrong (at least if you mostly make money in the week) and you want to go home so you’re motivated to just do it efficiently instead of hesitating. There is a risk of rolling bugs on the weekend but there’s also a risk of having to spend your Mondays fixing twice as many (on average) bugs from bad rolls as well as other issues that may have been discovered on the weekend. The best trick for deploying on Fridays is to not write bugs, write software that is easy to roll back, and/or spend your weekend away from any kind of mobile signal.
