[xkcd] Toasting Marshmallows

[github-actions[bot]]

We have two 'in case of fire, break glass' boxes, which you pick between based on how big of a problem the fire is. One has an extinguisher, and one has sticks, marshmallows, graham crackers, and chocolate.

Why it resonates: Every on-call engineer knows the real skill isn't fighting every fire — it's knowing which ones deserve the extinguisher and which ones are just an opportunity for s'mores while the auto-scaler handles it.
