Yoda Response: I recall a situation where I received critical feedback on a project I was working on for a friend's Discord server. We needed a bot to manage invitations for members who had paid for access. I developed a bot that sent email confirmation forms to potential participants, and upon verification, an automatic request to join the Discord server would be sent.

However, when the form went live, we encountered an issue where a large number of people tried to submit the form simultaneously, causing the system to become overwhelmed. My teammate pointed out that the bot wasn't handling the load efficiently, and this was a critical flaw.

I took the feedback constructively and realized the importance of designing systems that can scale. I revisited the project, optimized the code, and implemented better load management techniques. This experience taught me the value of planning for scalability from the outset, even for projects that start small. It also reinforced the importance of testing under different conditions to ensure robustness.
