Laziness is expensive

The internet is attached together with shoelaces. It’s almost surprising that it works, but it does. Things fail, but always try to have them fail only once.

I can’t stress how important it is to track when things die. How would you know how to prevent problems if you don’t care about fixing them? This is how expensive a failure is for me (a 3-fold drop in performance):
