i think this is already covered by 🥅 (catch errors).

[agea]

Maybe it's a subtle difference, usually in "catch error" commits, there is a try/catch clause explicitly catching errors

In this case, you wouldn't have a try/catch; instead, for instance, by adding a rate or concurrency limiter, you would generate exceptions

I'm also wondering which emoji to use for adding a rate limit 🤔

[vhoyer]

Hmm, I'm with @cruzdanilo, maybe we could change the description from catching errrors to also include the meaning to fault tolerance, what do you all think of "catch, prevent and manage errors"?

[mingjunlu]

@vhoyer Sounds good to me! 👍
