What Hacker News says

3 sources
We had a bit of a discussion about that, finally settling on adding `rescue_from` which you'll know from ActionController and raising a `ActiveJob::DeserializationError` wrapping `ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound`, allowing you to handle this lookup failure however you see fit. See the original discussion here: https://github.com/rails/activejob/issues/25 The discussion was then continued here: https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/16485#discussion-diff-16..., which is where the `ActiveJob::DeserializationError` comes from.
In Rails 4.2.0 beta1: Active Job, Deliver Later, Adequate Record, Web Console
