    Who needs tests when you have users?

    The testing environment is production!

      I work in state government and we insist on building our own systems. This is too fucking true and why it’s funny.

          We build systems to manage day care licenses in the state instead of buying someone else’s product.

      Technically there’s no substitute for testing in production lol

      Although ideally you’d want to test it beforehand…

        There are so many more, and better!, options than testing in prod, but they take time, money, and talent and ain’t no company got time for that (for a business segment that “doesn’t generate revenue”)

        Probably too long. That was a philosophy I had at school and iirc the founders never finished school and started MS in a garage.
