Mistake #2 was letting the tech bros anywhere near it.
I use one VDE switch per network with each network having a single tap interface to my OS bridges. It has been a feature of QEMU since 0.15 and the performance is just as good as taps or OVS.
Wreaths Across America is notorious for this. All the money they raise goes to the wreath making company that the board members own. When they put out RFPs, as per legal requirements, Worcester Wreath Company is always sole-source provider. https://popular.info/p/the-truth-about-wreaths-across-americ...
Worcester Wreath Company lost its contract with LL Bean due to their bad busines practices. Wreaths Across America was created by Morril Worcester as a way to sell more wreaths. It's a grift all the way down.

Everything is built to provide a fallback in cause of failure, including the OS updates when they come in.
The SCCS interleave format lived in BitKeeper and PVCS/Dimensions.
We told them politely where to stick it. Ever since then, we've been using Guacamole everywhere and even created an extension called CHIPS. The developer had a good sense of humor for that.

It took 10 years after Reagan fired the controllers to get the workforce back to pre-1981 levels. This caused a ripple effect because the people that were hired were around the same age. The result was the FAA had to deal with large sections of the ATSC workforce retiring at 56(the legal maximum for an air traffic controller) in bunches. The FAA has struggled since this to maintain adequate staffing levels due to high stress nature of the job.
The question asking if DEI is lowering standards is bunk because it is pre-loading the assumption that the best qualified workers are the what was there traditional (straight white males) and that somehow allowing others in requires lowering some standards.
For the purposes of the FAA air traffic control specialists, everyone who applies must go to the FAA Academy in Oklahoma City, OK and pass the the courses and tests provided there. They are then transferred to their home facilities where they must become certified for the position that they have been hired in. This requires additional tests, training, simulations, shadowing, and fully supervised workloads. If you become certified for a position and sector, it means that you can safely manage air traffic. Failure at any step along the way means that you wash out. The FAA does not lower standards for ATCS. See the following research paper on ATCS failure rates, rationales, and percentages. https://corescholar.libraries.wright.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi...
It's the same as denying someone a job because they are not culture fit for a company. It's because the people doing the hiring only want to hire people from their background, college, etc.
The safety issues and staffing levels have been an issue since Reagan fired the PATCO ATC workers. It's getting worse because traffic loads are increasing and it is getting harder to staff for a stressful safety-critical job.
Gerrit itself is an interesting review tool. It uses Git references to manage the review changeset before it is merged into the parent branch.
I used it on a project that used Redmine for issue tracking and Gerrit for the git repo and review tool. It took a bit to get used to how to git to push changes to a Gerrit review so we ended up using Git extensions to manage that.

It's common practice for political parties and PACs to do these bulk buys and then sell them or give them away during events or conventions.
In the last few years, my workplace added them to their blocklist. I didn't realize that one of the reasons was Quora is very spammy with emails.
They used to sell a slimmed down version called Red Hat Desktop, which was meant for single CPU machines with 8 or 16GB of RAM. It was sold as a data entry client OS.
I also used dashes as a word separator and to count as a special character. Nearly everyone allows for - , but it is hit or miss for other special characters.
I ended up writing a shell script to handle setting up a bridge, launching the container with systemd-nspawn and kick off commands to bring up the virtual ethernet interfaces inside the container and handle some other housekeeping
systemd-nspawn with systemd-network/resolve/etc can automatically manage the IP addresses for you. I'm using it as a wrapper around cgroup/netns commands.
One of these days, I will remove the dependency on systemd-nspawn so that I can use it on Linux systems without systemd or docker.
