Comments like this is why I come to Red…Lemmy.

Imagine never hearing the word “No.” as a complete sentence ever again in your life.

But how will they know what movies to watch or what’s the latest in fashion?

Can’t even get HL3 on an alternate timeline.

get fucked chud I’m an apex baddie with hot takes coming out like hot snakes. they smell the same too.

I need to compile my kernel… by hand with tools from beige-age computing.

You don’t compile all your packages from source, do you?

Are you running redundant routers, connections, ISPs…etc? Compromise is part of the design process. If you have resiliency requirements redundancy will help, but it ratchets up complexity and cost.

Security has the same kinds of compromises. I prefer to build security from the network up, leveraging tools like VLANs to start building the moat. Realistically, your reverse proxy is likely battle tested if it’s configured correctly and updated. It’ll probably be the most secure component in your stack. If that’s configured correctly and gets popped, half the Internet is already a wasteland.

If you’re running containers, yeah technically there are escape vectors, but again your attacker would need to pop the proxy software. It’d probably be way easier to go after the apps themselves.

Do something like this with NICs on each subnet:

DMZ VLAN <-> Proxy <-> Services VLAN

Double NIC on the proxy. One in each VLAN.

Easy to fix moving forward, but a really public admission of “oops” to all current phone key users who will have to reauth their phones.

There are answers, they just take a level of experience to reach that most people aren’t cut out for. You gotta be several principal+ IC roles or Dir+ mgr roles in before the patterns congeal into a plan.

Challenge is operating at those levels for extended periods requires a super fucking insane level of competency and dedication. Most people hit that spot and coast till retirement cause you’re at $500k+ at FAANG. Few keep looking for new opportunities unless forced to or they’re those corporate robot sharks with the dead eyes.

The idea is to squeeze as much revenue from the largest 600 clients while they desperately attempt to move to a different virtualization platform: https://www.theregister.com/2022/05/30/broadcom_strategy_vmware_customer_impact/

Rebuild time? Yeah it’ll take about that long.
