In this talk, Dylan Beatty discusses the negative connotation attached to the word failure and how it is perceived. He also explores the ways we anticipate and approach failure in the systems we build, as well as how we can work with the concept of failure. Beatty, an experienced software developer, emphasizes the importance of being prepared for failure and how it can actually be a useful tool for learning and growth. The title of his talk references a famous line from the movie Apollo 13, which highlights the idea that failure is not an option when it comes to space exploration. However, Beatty argues that failure must always be acknowledged as a possibility, and we must be prepared to deal with it when it happens.
