I'm definitely still a noob but I've done hundreds of hours of debugging on code in the past few months, and my job for the past 8 years is basically to troubleshoot issues, though the past year I got to start doing devops/code work on the side.

Its fine though, I get why you guys are scared.

Then you should know that code not working is the absolute easiest fuckup to catch. It's literally not one to be concerned about.

One in a million chance of an edge case that doesn't throw an error at all, but does something unexpected? Good luck if you don't know how the system works.

All that and you still think that "doesn't work" is the only problem that can happen?
