I went through some reviewers LinkedIn profiles. Most of them are 22-30y old claiming to be senior SW developers, architects or team leads. Maybe your problem isn't the resume but an imposter syndrome...

Are you saying that fixed parameters chosen for no apparent reason by the WireGuard developers are better than modularity and interoperability of IPsec? What if in a few months ChaCha20 gets proven insecure due to collisions found or easy

Yet still it spreads lies. There's not only 4 pieces of information needed to establish IPsec (they even cannot count as they mention 5 pieces). In addition to named remote and local IP addresses, subnets and a pre-shared key you also

He does the math to prove that when you subtract all the mandatory protocol and frame headers you end up with practical maximum of 949.28 Mbps on 1 Gbps line. Providing charts with 1011 Mbps in favor of WireGuard makes all the comparison at

Corrupting SP is part of almost every exploit and I can guarantee you that it is very likely (going to cause harm on your system). Try to pull Metasploit GIT repo to get some idea about thousands of payloads that do corrupt SP without crash

Kernel is modular. Literally everything can be enabled/disabled. Aviation has strict regulations and that's why most critical systems have redundant parts. Putting a sigle critical component into plane is stupid in and of itself.

Linux is a modular kernel. I'm not aware of a single thing you can't disable or make modular during config/compile. I woudn't like to be the guy who's medical equipment killed him by slowly decreasing his oxygen lev

I can't think of single useful piece of software nowdays that is exposed to public and can't run in active-active load balanced or clustered scenario. If your kernel/system/userland-app misbehaves it simply needs to be s
