Summary

Matt Makai, a developer and consultant, recounts his experience of accidentally dropping his client's production database, which led to a series of errors and ultimately resulted in the successful restoration of the data from nightly backups. He learned two key lessons: the importance of regular backups and the value of working with a capable team that can help recover from mistakes. Makai joined the Developer Evangelism team at Twilio, where he aims to build a supportive culture that encourages experimentation and learning from errors, rather than fearing them. With his experience and background in consulting for various clients, including non-profits and government organizations, Makai is committed to improving the tech scene in Washington D.C. and fostering a community that promotes collaboration and mutual support among developers.
