@ObstacleMan robust (i.e. it has engineering resilience) is not the same as resilient. I prefer Holling's Engineering vs Ecological resilience view which I've tried to summarise in the following table.

It's enough to make you love the English language again. Almost.

Great episode! If you ever wondered what a platform engineering team should do, give it a listen.

@SerJamey @yesthattom My experience with Unifi is not one that I would recommend to friends. I have co-workers who love it - but I'd be more inclined towards a router/mesh that reads a remote config file... then use terraform to manage that file.

@petergyang After a while, you start to like looking for the bugs.

@thefarseeker How did they get past the initial 2fa?
I’m guessing knew enough security questions to disable it?

The social engineering piece is a combination of skill and dumb luck on the part of the attacker… but storing scrips with a key?
That’s really inexcusable for a major tech company.

@MWasielewskiJr Happen to have a decent write up on the events that played out?

[Dan O'Boyle @selfcommit]

Same.

@isugimpy “Ability to wield in anger” should be listed under goals.

Justice Thomas concurs, saying overruling Roe isn't enough. "For that reason, in future cases, we should reconsider all of this Court’s substantive due process precedents, including Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell." That's right to privacy, contraception, marriage equality,etc

@yesthattom It does have a leaf on it.. it might even be Basil?

@standaloneSA Tailscale has a cool dns feature.
For my lab though I just host everything through cloud flare.
cloud flare will happily point to a public or private address.
Yes, I’m exposing my lab ips, if someone really looked but - eh.
Can’t do much with that and the convenience wins out

@Nick_Craver If a retaining wall falls over, is it either of the things it pretends to be?
