Yes I agree, and thank you for weighing in. But I firmly believe that happiness comes from living in the present. So it’s a fun intellectual problem that I’ll be exploring in future posts.
My currently conclusion is that by being proactive in your code you can live more freely. And in a sense that’s the happiest way to live right now.
But I suppose one can go “too far” with defensive coding in which case it helps to have good teammates that call it out. It’s all a balance, right?
I am a developer with a passion for testing. I've been coding for 14 years and I want to share my experience and learnings with other developers to help them write better software.

I believe that's what Aristotle said. ;)
Trying to find a balance is usually the best approach.
