The employees themselves can definitely gtfo to Finland for the reason that they have an unrealistic perception of business and the world. The business itself has no obligation to pay attention to magical thinking.
most of the comments are dodging the point of the article and looking for unrelated strawmen to attack. ok, maybe the site has cookies. who cares? the issue is the phone not the marketing site. so that is a weak point.
overall the idea sounds good. but is Jolla open source? Can we compile it and run it on the phone?
An overlay like Tailscale MagicDNS might solve this but is complex.
Assigning the same name to 2 IP's (round robin DNS) will mean having to retry the ssh connection if the IP of the inactive interface is returned.
Failover bonding (mode 1) of the wireless and wired interfaces with MAC address spoofing so that the bonded interface maintains a consistent MAC address is reportedly not always supported by WiFi hardware and standards. Bonding may require manual reconfiguration when the laptop moves from the local network where "shortname" is used to an arbitrary WiFi network like airport or coffee shop.
Are there any solutions that satisfy single IP and reliable WiFi at the same time?
Linux used to be able to move the same IP between 2 interfaces depending on which was active. But it looks like advancements in Linux networking have killed this simple solution.
