1:31:02Brian Q: This is a generic question, but for an example AddBoxStorage demonstrates this. I see Asserts are used to find exceptions in debug mode. What would be the way to handle a failed Assert in release mode, assuming in release Assert is just stubbed. Is it a case where most if not all problems would be found during testing and not needed to make changes for release?

1:34:49Brian Q: Will we need to go through each Assert call and eventually add ways to handle failure cases? Or only when we run into an issue down the line and fix those specific failures? I ask because I add Asserts to my code but then wonder what is the proper way to handle failures when I am not building release
