Yeah, once the plane has been diverted, everyone has been evacuated etc, the incentive to find something "bad" he might have done to justify the disruption & the expense is serious. Will this cause anyone to critically examine

We can split hairs about which one wanes fastest, but it's not like vaccine provided immunity is bullet-proof or lasts forever: As of 10/4, COVID19 cases resulting in death or requiring hospitalization are up to 1/10,000 amon

I think there is ambiguity about to which particular idiot you are referring. In any case, if I wanted spyware parity with Chrome, I'd use Chrome.

Risk is what you can put a probability on (i.e., quantify). Uncertainty is what you can't. Uncertainty encompasses unknown unknowns. See Knight[1] and Keynes[2]. Good rule of thumb even if it sounds overly simplified. [1]: https:&#x2

As fun as it is to do this stuff, it is better to think about what a unit of deployment is first. Conceptually, it is important to separate the stuff that changes rarely (e.g., bucket name, the CNAME etc) from the stuff that changes at each
