Continuous Delivery: A Christmas Tale – By CircleCI
I’ve received this beautiful poem from CircleCI. thought of sharing it.
’Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the startup
were grim engineers who had taken old BART up
to put out a fire that users had found;
they hacked and they Slacked but did not make a sound.No presents, no stockings, no holiday cheer;
there was only LaCroix and some leftover beer.
Management, too, were awake in their beds,
while visions of bankruptcy danced in their heads.The bug was quite bad, a security flaw
that was pushed in September, but nobody saw.
“That PR was huge! How could we review it?!”
cried one righteous soul, the one who approved it.“I explained in the comments that you didn’t read,”
typed the perp and then added a “frown” emoji.
Then out of that chat there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from my desk to see what was the matter.
