I appreciate the answers thus far. Still, it feels as if these errors are not useful for situations where there's virtually no existing accessible support for the end user for the product, i.e., Google, Facebook. In these cases, the developer may be able to look at the logs of that moment, but the likelihood that they'll even receive the complaint is next to nothing.
- cdaringe 2y agoWhat alternatives would you implement?A BSOD? :) I jest, of course. If you’re not going to design exhaustive messaging for every case, have an umbrella fallback. If enough users do get the error that prompted the error case, best believe that giant globo corps will pick up on higher error rates to a corresponding code that is non user facing and correct that case. -globo corp engineer who responds to error reporting from the masses and corrects for them
