'display tags' 500's (with the rails default 500 message, no less) Edit: actually EVERY OTHER REQUEST 500's. Reload, ok, reload, 500, reload ok.

yes, nobody ever really needs to be in stealth mode
882.
by joshwa 19y ago
yes, it's the only reasonable thing to do, since it provides needed context

by joshwa 19y ago
no, there are cases where sharing relevant details would actually cause harm
