A batch of the best highlights from what Josh's read, .
As incidents continue to occur, teams generally respond by starting to track more metrics, such as “Mean Time To Detect” (MTTD)—the gap in time between the issue beginning and an alert getting triggered—and “Mean Time To Mitigation” (MTTM)—the time between that first alert and when you’ve contained the user impact.

Nobody can do their best work on wobbly projects.
[Vises](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vise) reduce movement in undesirable directions. They help you focus your energy in limited axes.
Good measurements are wasted on uneven cuts, and vice versa.
Measure Twice, Vise Thrice.

We call this era Clown Town.
