This is such a bummer. Russia still has good long term energy plans for Germany. (if you are European this is sarcasm).

Phase 0: breakins to all (php/python/etc,)

Phase 1: the closure, companies close down sites, all banks down

Phase 2: the reopen- but to only the correct* sites

Phase 3: the viruses

Phase 4: the re-shutdown

Phase 5: use of physical currency / fax machines only.

We are just getting to Phase 0. By end of 2026 most things will be broken into. By 2027 most banks will be offline.

"All I'm saying is that understanding how to maintain the systems"

Awwww. It is like talking to a dev in 2010. Ok. So, there are machines now smarter than you. You are the problem. You are the thing that adds errors. "understanding how to maintain" No, that is over. sorry. As a human, you are too slow, too dumb to compete.

When a CVE comes out, the patch needs to be applied across the company in minutes. YOU cannot do this 2010 dev dude. Put down the Puppet files. Let go of the python PR.
