I'm gonna have to hard disagree on this. No matter how much testing you do, there will still be unknowns, or emergent properties that only exist in the exact production environment that is not present in test or stage. Shit does and will happen. Not deploying on a Friday night is an acknowledgement of this fact.

> That's an argument to never deploy because there's certainly some bug lurking somewhere. Don't buy it. There's the author's glib and smug strawman response to similar common sense. I actually agree with their sentiment, using CI and feature flags should mean having more confidence where one could choose to ship on Friday. I also agree with the fact that eventually the team will ship a bug. Better to do so when you're likely to see it during the workweek.
