Definitely! There's probably some mystical mechanism making sure newbies go through it.
I consider myself an "experienced" developer, yet on the first day on my current gig I dropped a '--recursive' flag in an AWS command and deleted a bunch of stuff I shouldn't have. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
- _boffin_ 3y agoI’m sure some processes and procedures were updated on that day and the next.
- Zobat 3y agoAt some time we learned about delete locks in Azure and promptly created those for all production resources. Have had/heard of enough actual/almost "killed production" stories to understand their value. A bit cumbersome when you actually need to delete something but so worth it for the mental health of the team.
- bombcar 3y agoThe key with delete locks and similar is it HAS to be something out-of-band; if the normal way to delete is via a website, the delete lock removal should be API or command line, etc A simple --max-really-delete added to a command line is subject to "replay attacks" on yourself when you use CTRL+R.
