Ask HN: How worried do you get over bugs in your code? Is this a mental health issue?
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=549969Just how worried do you get? And what do you do to try to alleviate your worries? Does it work?
Obviously extensive testing, static typing, code review, and revision control help, but that doesn't mean that your worries are sufficiently low in practice.
I wonder if there's a mental health issue to be studied here with potential solutions specific to software developers.
