14. A reminder I always share with my clients....

Software is not easy. There are more variables than even the best developers can possibly imagine, let alone account for. We do our best to place safety rails around our products, but testing in any kind of alpha or beta setting will never be able to fully replicate a production environment. Things will happen. Bugs will be found. And the bigger the changes, the more issues will be found after (or during) deployment. Please be patient, report bugs or issues, and understand that we’re all working to give you the best experience possible.

Thanks EarlG and Elad for not just keeping the lights on, but working to make DU an ever-evolving oasis of humanity and truth in a world that so often seems dominated by the angry, hateful, and gullible.
