Man, the origin of your screen name is the same level of lore as Rust being named after fungi, and not corrosion. Love it! Glad you're in better health again. Been using your software for nearly 10 years spanning before and after my career started. Thanks for all the work you do in open source.

Cheers

Rust ownership model ("stacked borrows" I believe it's called) is basically this

I finally installed Windows 11 last year so I could use Wifi 6E. Other than that, it is certainly a downgrade. With some debloating and ExplorerPatcher, its mostly the same as Windows 10 now, but I'm praying that an update wont brick my install. Thankfully the latest forced feature update didn't affect me.

I received a title bump without pay increase to Senior after doing senior work for 4 years because our senior bracket is capped by lifers waiting to retire (I like them as people but they are checked out, professionally). It just left a bad taste in my mouth that it took so long to be recognized officially.

To put things into context, I'm basically operating as an engineering consultant to the rest of our senior staff and directors across multiple teams. In larger companies, perhaps I would be an intermediate IC, but in this company I am definitely responsible for more than my ICs.

It's my fault for not holding them to it, and should have realized earlier that I'm working under management that only reacts to things immediately happening to them.

> especially in the age of TikTok

Shouldn't grey beards, grizzled by years of practicing rigorous engineering, be passing this knowledge on to the next generation? How did they learn it when just starting out? They weren't born with it. Maybe engineering has actually improved so much that we only need to experience outages this frequently, and such feelings of nostalgia are born from never having to deal with systems having such high degrees of complexity and, realistically, 100% availability expectations on a global scale.

seems related to CF tunnels... policies are being enforced but perhaps origin servers are not being properly served.

proxy seems available in general, must just be local to workers because only one of my sites going thru ZT tunnel with identity access rules is affected

I have also noticed strange behavior that was not present before this perceived update, e.g. basic auth challenges and pop-up windows if I'm waking up my computer and still have azdo pages open.
