Hi y'all, Do we use levels for any of these error log outputs? That is, are they classified on output as High, Medium, Low, Info, or something like that?
Or do we have to triage each of them as we examine them? I was just thinking if they were somehow leveled, we could use measurements of the number of each type and set targets for lowering the number of those kinds of logs. That would potentially help visualize and prioritize the work. It might be easier to say something like that, "Let's have a goal to produce 10% less High errors in the next two months," than to have a more nebulous approach that seems to require Tyler or someone from his team to highlight tasks that are especially impactful. I'm mostly ignorant of exactly how these processes work now so if I'm telling y'all something you already know, forgive me. I was mostly thinking out loud about how we could start to approach the work more systematically.
