## 简介

This thread is incredibly well phrased, explaining exactly why it’s important for developer to be on call and how to make that not terrible. Bonus content: the thread also branches out into on-call compensation.

> if you aren’t supporting your own services, your services are qualitatively worse **and** you are pushing the burden of your own fuckups onto other people, who also have lives and sleep schedules.

All this heated talk about on call is certainly revealing the particular pathologies of where those engineers work.  Listen:
1) engineering is about building *and maintaining* services
2) on call should not be life-impacting
3) services are *better* when feedback loops are short
