Our standard CI/CD pipeline passed. Even our shiny new AI code reviewer gave it a confident "LGTM." Two weeks later, under heavy load, that unclosed generator caused a catastrophic socket leak. We exhausted our connection pool, killed 47 pods across our replica set, and spent three hours debugging a slow-rolling outage. We wrote a rigorous post-mortem, established a strict team convention about socket teardown, and moved on. A month later, a different developer submitted almost the exact same pattern in a different microservice. The AI linter approved it again. That was the moment I realized the fatal flaw in the current generation of d
