Developing code against Production databases...

<rant>

You have to be kidding right? Wrong. It happens.

This is something that really perplexes me, I mean, come on, I'm from a development background and this is something I've never done, but, this actually happens. In big business too!

It's certainly not a good idea in my opinion, but what are the other options? More hardware? Greater resource requirements? all with a hefty cost attachment, so I understand why this happens. This is something I can never condone, and will never get used to.

What more can I say? other than: Do you not value your data? Then by all means, carry on!
