it is extremely funny to me that a literal trillion dollars funnelled into a cloud provider results in more sev0 / sev1 outages per year than you'd get with a hosting provider run by a polycule out of an apartment block in rural Germany.

I never imagined GitHub would ask me to speak about Log4Shell.
But it happened.

GitHub asked me to share the story as I lived it, for the benefit of all maintainers and users of open source. How could I say no?

I hope it helps build a more secure future.

No more Log4Shell.

“stop that filthy habit [that comforts you in
times of stress that you don’t even realise you're doing]”

I pick at the sewn seams on my blankets and my jeans. I've done it for longer than I have memory.

My ex-wife would slap my hands.

A friend sent me a screenshot
of some old prediction
about how everyone
who got “the jab”
would be dead by now,
and though I am confident
(I am fairly confident)
that I am still alive,
were I actually dead
and in hell
I feel that would explain a lot
about the state of the world.

Währenddessen möchte die Bundesregierung neue Gaskraftwerke bauen und das Verbrenneraus verschieben - wirklich klasse Ideen…

If you have seen folks talking about "Omarchy" or maybe seen a screenshot that looked neat, please be aware that it is an operating system for nazis, by nazis. DHH made a linux distribution with Hyprland, which is a tiling Wayland compositor for bigots, by bigots.

I am sorry if you'd seen some of the compelling aesthetics and I had to rain on your parade, I hope that this saves a few people from investing any emotional energy in this project
