That time I YOLO'd on production DB
by•
Let me tell you about the night I aged 10 years in 4 seconds.
11pm. Bug was on fire. I was half asleep, fingers on autopilot.
Ran the query. Hit enter.
"Wait... why does this look wrong?"
........
UPDATE without WHERE. 200k rows. Production.
I just sat there. Completely frozen. That specific kind of silence where you know exactly what you did and your brain just... refuses to process it.
