@nixCraft "One tiny cron job that keeps everything from falling apart".

@nixCraft That one tiny cron job's job is to clean up all the inconsistencies in the database that accrue due to runtime errors that have a 3 year old FIXME bug. But will never get fixed because that involves re-architecting half the application.

@partiallystochastic @nixCraft Worse, it needs understanding the application. It (seems) always cheaper to band aid things with cron etc :P
