Best AppStore changlog I’ve read all week:
“Temporarily disable sending usage statistics data”
Why? What happened! I must know more!2 -
Sometimes I want to go back in time and slap myself when I say "yeah that shouldn't be too difficult" to a client.4

During the first few months of my first professional development role, I had a really odd bug on a live WordPress site that I couldn't replicate locally, despite having the same code and dependency setup. Using WordPress was a mistake but not the one I'm writing about.
I decided to copy live site and its database. Then I thought it best to delete all the users from the copy of the database (I'm not sure why I thought I should do that) and I did so via the WordPress admin UI.
What I wasn't aware of was there was a custom function to email the user before they get deleted.
I got inundated with hundreds of confused/angry/hysterical users about their accounts being deleted, even though they hadn't actually been, and a telling off from the boss.1
