Re:Timsort, the Python sorting algorithm by kragen on Tuesday October 08, 2019 @07:38PM (#21198467)
Most of the time I want it to crash in development and give me unsorted output in production; debugging an unhandled exception is super easy compared to debugging sometimes incorrectly sorted output. In rare cases I would also want it to crash in production. I definitely don't want it to change between the two scenarios when I update my JVM.
