Why would anyone want to run unmainlined security patches from a company?
This is how CrowdStrike happened.
This feels like security via business decision which is always the opposite of security. At least this would be open source now? ๐คทโโ๏ธ
You sound like me almost 25 years ago.
This is how things are. This is how they will always be. We will ALWAYS have to fight to keep people from being hated and excluded, especially in ourselves as we look at the people trying to do the excluding and our knee-jerk is to exclude them.
I wish I had the answer so we could skip the hard work and live together in harmony. I worry there just is never an easy answer or change in tactics or shift in messaging - it's just living your whole life with bravery and kindness, as hard as that gets at times.
It's not. That's an Israeli propaganda push, not reality.
What Israel is doing is unconscionable, and has been rightly identified as genocide.
Don't let anyone call you antisemitic for saying that. You have said nothing about Jewish people, you have only said that a nation is committing war crimes, which is plain as day.
I mean, vendor lock-in and lack of resiliency to a vendor-specific outage, maybe caused by some piece of their stack you have never nor will ever touch, or maybe the platform CEO decides your kind of company isn't expedient for their business anymore, are among the reasons why a company should never have ended up in that situation in the first place.
You can continue along that road of least resistance while ignoring all of the risks. That is up to you. You'll probably be fine. (Not joking, you'll be fine. But don't pretend like this is all necessary.)
The "business" people in charge. Aka the people who don't contribute and mostly fuck shit up.
It's on us engineers to fix their shit thinking. You know they won't.
It does not have to be this way. Stop pretending it does so that you don't have to worry about it.
There are alternatives with better APIs. Or, you know, don't buy into the bullshit and rack up a few servers yourself.
Tired of this "oh, but I can't ๐ข๐ข๐ข."
At better prices, with better service and APIs.
It's like people enjoy the abuse? ๐คทโโ๏ธ
That road leads to the same place.
And I like the dude running to help immediately as well.
Unsubbed.
Don't need to be giving my dollars to the spineless, or worse, to a fascist-supporting media owner.
This is already true for the vast majority of games. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
