There’s also that long time senior dev who’s overly confident in their abilities and force pushes production breaking code directly to master.

Nah, they’re the one who’s contributing most to the project. Mostly because their code is so garbage no one else can work with it. But that’s not a thing the managers take into account.

Yeet that shit into main. Who needs unit tests, it works on my computer?

If it works in my mind it’s ready for production

YOLOdev is the best way to dev

This shit happened the other week for me. Senior dev pushed the shittiest JS code without testing the day of a production install and it caused us to have to roll back the install after it very predictably caused a bunch of crashes for pages on our public site. Worst part is, the entirety of what he wrote could've been implemented as a CSS media query
