Honestly a couple, but one that was mentioned already but always confuses me is caching.

Like I get it and know what it is all about. But how do you always make sure people see the latest info on something when they NEED to see the latest info? Then how do you make sure and even handle people that are experiencing a cached version of something and not the latest version? Can’t just tell everyone to force reload without cache.

Every time I think about caching I just get so overwhelmed with it and overthink it.
