On the personal level: For every markdown article/README I write, I pipe it through ArchiveBox / Archive.org and put (mirror) links next to the originals in case they go down.
At the organizational level: my company has a dedicated “old urls” section in our urls.py routes files where we redirect old URLs to their new locations. Then on critical projects we also have a unit test that appends all URLs ever used to a tracked file in CI and checks that they still resolve or redirect on new deployments. Any 404 for a legacy URL is considered a release-blocking bug.
