Your analogy breaks down. It would be more accurate to say "Do you wear a helmet only on the days you plan to intentionally launch yourself off the bike into a rock?"
If you cannot install a server without ensuring you're running what you expect to be running, you've no business running it at all.
- justsomehnguy 4y agoTell that to all folks who have no idea but eager to have a private server/make business/whatever. It looks like you are one of those fanboys who regard their skill as a something sacrosanct to which no plebs should be allowed to even know.
- Gordonjcp 4y agoNot in the slightest. It's a skill that everyone should know, if they want to run servers. It's a skill you can acquire by reading some very simple instructions. Imagine if bridges were designed and built by the fuckwits that created (or indeed use) MongoDB.

The other way in which the analogy is flawed is that I might very well consider myself a perfect cyclist, but that still doesn't protect me from that drunk driver in a SUV shooting out a side alley where I have no chance to react.
- Gordonjcp 4y agoYour analogy still doesn't work. A firewall does nothing useful if there's nothing to firewall.
- iforgotpassword 4y agoYes? That's exactly what I'm saying.
