(as a devops/security minded engineer) ...and companies wonder how supply chain attacks are possible

My previous company used Cloudinary for the purpose and amazingly lot of time was saved.

Most Indian Banking services, Payment endpoints, OTT platforms have adapted phone numbers as identity.

Your phone number is your identity. You can receive or send money only through your phone if the SIM is installed and validated by sending an SMS.

Getting a replacement SIM card requires physical verification using Aadhar (Identity service) with One Time Password validation (Email/SMS). Once the new SIM is active, you will not receive any SMS for the first 24 hours after getting a replacement SIM card. This is to reduce the attack surface of SIM Swap attacks.

Wait! Why not bitcoin?

Pointing to cloudflare dns circumvents the issue for now.

move away from ISP DNS to 1.1.1.1 to temporarily solve the issue.

Short answer: it depends

Subscriptions lock you in on various levels. It’s very similar to renting a house. You can get kicked out by the owner.

Subscriptions for individuals is different from subscriptions for companies. Companies want to optimise time, individuals may want to optimise cost

personally, I am inclined to pay for IDEs as I spend more than 50% of the time on it, but not so much similar amounts when I use tools no more than 5-10 times a day.

I let my subscription expire about 3 months ago. (CC handling changes in India, you know)

I have only updated about 3-4 passwords out of 100s of items I store. This has been a realisation for me.

1pass, leaves the account in read only mode since it comes from your local storage anyway.

I need to get familiarised with the Bitwarden UI, its not very similar to 1pass, so there is a adoption curve. Hosted Bitwarden with the rust variant option is an option to consider.

Yes agreed. Assuming software engineering context here, not civil or mechanical or other mature industries which usually require millions to create, validate, test and release a new product.

Negotiation of requirements is a problem based on limitations like recources (money, people), known knows and known unknowns.

Requirements is a communication and expectation problem. Not an engineering problem.

Software or hardware engineering is a solution. You can solve the same with a pen and paper if you know what the user needs.

Agile is a way to iteratively validate expectations and revisit and update things with minimal wastage
