• BE VERY CAREFUL WITH FORCE PUSHING
• ABSOLUTELY DO NOT FORCE PUSH WITHOUT CHECKING CHANGES AFTER A LONG AND COMPLEX REBASE ON TRUNK
• WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT
• make sure you're not setting this.loading = true on a class that has another 5 or so api calls coming up
  • especially if it's not an observable property
  • and you want them to run simultaneously
• when you roll out a new feature to prod, don't just spend hours making a performance monitoring dashboard
  • instead you should probably spend that time looking at the error monitoring
  • or do both, monitoring for new errors is not time consuming
  • basically don't assume you caught everything in dev & staging, users do weird stuff and we have observability for a reason
• on an unrelated note, you can't return from a React component before all hooks have been called
  • otherwise you'll get an error on re-render because they ran in a 'different' order
  • it's possible for this to manifest only when the component is accessed directly through a URL
