Binary Code

Came into work this morning to find Twitterific gracefully informing me of an error on the Twitter servers:

I post this not to mock the Twitter folks by any means but rather, as a developer with a development team who’s about to ship a new site in a matter of weeks, to remind myself that even giants trip and fall on occasion and it’s not the end of the world when it happens. The question is not “do you stumble?” but rather “how gracefully do you pick yourself back up again?”

(And to the inevitable “no excuse” fireand brimstone comments that are sure to follow: first stone and all that).
