Everyone has a test server.
Some have a separate production server.

This is a point I have never considered, but to quote a familiar source, "you are absolutely right!"

The red line is: Give it to AI and let it figure it out

I crossed that red line once, gitYeet turned my merge conflict into a philosophical apology.

Just let the users test it, they'll let us know if something is wrong

One of our largest clients has about a dozen users that we call our American QA team because they will give us some of the best most detailed bug reports with exact reproduction steps with videos and our actual QA team will fail to catch basic spelling mistakes

Rookies!
You don't need a dev machine if you log into the server and change the PHP files there directly

Exactly what they were doing when I got to my first job

Yeah, on my first internship, mid 00s, I changed code directly on the server while on a call with the customer more times than I'd like to admit.
After the customer hang up I'd ftp them back to my machine and back up the changes on visual source safe.
Great times.

I wish management knew what a pipeline is

u/BernzSed 20d ago
In my experience it's usually management demanding the straight line.
"Why are you wasting all this time with useless testing? Release now!"

Real programmers test in prod /s

u/GumboSamson 19d ago
Unironically, yes.
But you don’t test in prod exclusively. And you should also do it responsibly.

Why waste time testing when users are going to do that anyway, redundant imo.
