Kornfeld Eliyahu Peter suggested that a while ago.
Doesn't fit your clue though, he is right.
You have the 3rd and 5th characters the same, should be the 2nd and 5th.
Other than that, is is an excellent Pac-man.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

Oops - I've corrected it (too little too late)
That's what comes from rushing things - I got the characters a while ago but just put them together a second before I posted!
Still - fortunately it was all too obvious!

Related to the below.
You cannot eliminate risk.
Doing something that carries risk is OK.
You need to know what the risk is.
You need to know what to do should something go wrong.
At some point you just have to bloody well do something.
Some places spend so much time and money trying to manage / eliminate risk that they end up either moving so slowly as to retard themselves or do nothing at all.
They spend so much time of so many people trying to ensure nothing will go wrong that the cost of ensuring nothing goes wrong far outweighs the cost of something going wrong.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

I always like the A Team quote about the best plans are those that can be changed. (At least I thinks its the A Team....)
Anyway, means you bring the risk to the front of the process, and go ahead with what you know with the proviso that things can change as new data comes in.
That's the best way to attack any project, be it building a bridge or a chunk of code.

Even if you are not in the A team, you should know that the first victim after contact with the enemy always is the plan. Strategists go sit on that hill over there and watch if you like, tacticians take over!

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

...and then the Accountants decide it's too expensive to do because it has cost so much to get to the point where you decide you can do it, the project itself will clearly take forever.

NASA has a lot of resources, and they test more than the average company. Even they blow up a rocket by accident.

That may have something to do with having everything built by the lowest bidder!

..yes, the argument against work paid for by the government. NASA proves the opposite; fact that not every rocket explodes shows that they not just select the cheapest.

this is Murphy's Law. If everything is flawless, you can't advence. Perhaps our life is created by a bad mistake like mutation.
Every irregularity creates own regularity.

Some project management frameworks recommend that Tasks with the highest risk be performed as early as possible in the project.
In other words, if you are going to fail, fail early before it costs too much.
You can then decide whether to kill the project, or find an alternate way of accomplishing the task that failed before you've invested a lot of work into the bad path.
