I believe developers need the courage to do what we feel is necessary and the paranoia to quadruple check our work and assumptions.

Paranoia is often useful, but with a good enviorment, and tools it's rarely need. I find bad assumptions often cause the worst problems. Break things regularly and you end up with fewer assumptions about the code base / production environment which is a vary good thing.

I don't trust tools unless I wrote them myself, in which case I know there will be bugs in them.
