Back

@ellie For some reason, I thought I needed access to prod DB from my dev machine (basically me being lazy and not doing the debugging and reproduction properly)

So the DB_URL env var, pointed to the live database with payment details of over a million users in it.

Guess what happened when an hour later, I ran the tests in that terminal? Yeah, those with the before() function that called db_reset().

(We had backups. And failover. We're down for less than a minute. Still...)
