I am surprised and impressed a company at that scale functions like this. We often internally discuss if we can still doing this when we’re 7-8 engineers.

- jedberg 2y agoI think you're looking at it backwards. We were only able to do it because we had so many engineers that we had time to write tools to make the system reliable enough. On call for a week at a time only really works if you only get paged at night once a week max. If you get paged every night, you will die from sleep deprivation.
