Explain "live bug fixing on prod"? Is this a tooling thing?

Hah, it's a joke because you can vim and edit the code live. It's risky tbh. There is no recompiling needed

Ahh I see. I guess that's similar for a lot of interpreted languages/runtimes, though (at least ones that use the same one-process-per-request model)?

Live bug fixing on prod

This is not a plus, except if you have a very small website which doesn't have much visitors and you can afford breaking things from time to time.
