It's 2013. Our small dev team is on the verge of shipping one of its most impressive client projects to date. I'm at my stand-up desk, skimming through early morning emails. My partner bursts through the office door:

"Something's wrong with our Angular app, man. I've got a digest is already in progress error popping everywhere, and I can't figure out what's happening," he says, visibly nervous.

But I'm not nervous, nor stressed. I know exactly where to start looking, because I know my JavaScript.

And I know all of this thanks to a small robot. Yup, you read that right: a robot.
