A service I worked on once had an integration test that reserved + released a Twilio phone number ($1) on every run. That was fine when it ran once a day, but then we hired a few more developers...

Interesting if true. I wonder what could drive such an effect. Baader-Meinhof effect? Fat tails? Diaconi's Poisson toy model (sort of a regression to the mean): https://www.math.uchicago.edu/~fcale/CCC/DC.pdf#page=6 … ? Swiss-cheese model of failure, where small bug means fallen past several layers already?

I think fat tails. As software systems grow large, code paths get explored pretty thoroughly, and there are no guardrails that prevent people using your silly-bug-containing code for serious business.
