Maybe it would have made school, work, money, relationships, or everyday life much easier. What made you realize it was worth learning?

We have automated the easy half. Findings auto create tickets, auto route to the right owner, arrive with context attached, all fine. The actual patch deployment step is still fully human because one bad auto patch is an outage, and nobody wants to be the automation that took down prod on a Tuesday. For anyone who has actually pushed automation into the deploy step itself, what is the real safety net? Canary rollout, staged deployment, automatic rollback if a health check fails, and where is the line you have personally drawn between safe to automate and always needs a human approval, especially anything with a blast radius that includes total system control if it goes sideways.
