It usually means that an earlier conditional statement excludes the complicated code from even executing or that the complicated code has somehow internally contradicted itself and returned before getting to the complicated part
Me just a couple of days ago. Deployed complicated database transaction code between MariaDB and SL objects. It worked on the first try and has resisted every attempt to break it.
I’m terrified!
If something complicated seems to be working on the first try it 100% of the time means you’re missing something.
If it doesn’t blow up on the first run the feature flag isn’t enabled
Nothing makes me more suspicious than a program that does the thing on the first try, always something horrible lurking beneath the surface

And usually that thing is a test.
Thatβs right. We had a project go live last week; and it mostly went ok. I am nearly disappointed
This is so very true

This is sooooo true.
