i think that is data rather than code which is where it falls short, in a way you need stringent code and more safeguarded code; it's like if everyone sends you 64k posts as that's all your proxy layer lets in, someone checked sending 128kb and it gave an error before reaching your app - and then someone sends 128kb and the proxy layer has changed - and your app crashes as it was more than 64kb and your app had an assert against that. to actually track issues with erraneous data that overflows well and stuff isn't so much code test but more like fuzz testing, brute force testing etc. which i think people should do; but that's more like we need strong test networks, and also those test networks may need to be more internet like to reflect real issues too, so the whole testing infrastructure in itself becomes difficult to get right - like they have their own tunneling system etc, they could segregate some of their servers and make a test system with better error diagnosis etc potentially. but to my mind, if they had better error propogation back that really identified what was happening and where then that would be a lot better in general. sure, start doing that on a test network. this is something i've beeen tihnking about in general - i made a simple rpc system for being able to send real time rust tracing logs (it allows to just use the normal tracing framework and use a thin rpc layer) back from multiple end servers but that's mostly for granular debugging. i've never quite understood why systems like systemd-journald aren't more network centric when they're going to be big and complex kitchensink approaches - apparently there's dbus support, but to my mind something inbetween debugging level of code and warning/info. like even if it's doing things like 1/20 of log info it's too much volume if things like large files getting close to limits is increasing etc and we can see this as things run, and can see if it's localised or common etc it'd help have more resilient systems. something may already exist in this line but i didn't come across anything in a reasonably passive way - i mean there's debugging tools like dtrace etc that have been around for ages.
