What you were watching was a crisis. Of a novel kind too because normally this would go onto a security list, get patched, then you get the "update and roll over now" after a few hours and then next week we'd know what's what.

This was live. Extreme pressure. Even in the thread here on SN. I am sure some stackers didn't sleep much Thu->Fri, and on Twitter we saw people deprivating themselves of sleep beyond what is wise. Pressure to solve it. Ask the bot. Share preliminary unverified findings... on and on and on. This all went down in record speed.

To give you a comparison: 2 years ago, for a similarly complex, high priority bug, I needed 2 days to confirm, 1.5 days to patch and do a release, and luckily the ecosystem was ready to adopt quick - within a week most was fixed when wave 2 happened because someone figured it all out from reverse engineering the patch. Of course I didn't have a bot, or an army of people on twitter, or so many eyes on it. But the speed of this should give resolve. Wave 2 happened after 12 hours or so because once you are in this public setting, there is no going back and every fool has a bot now.

who doomscroll X

If you're not actively reviewing, having hardened process and spend at least 20% of your awake time on security then you better doomscroll X for every product you depend upon. Because that's the world we live in now.

trust and the respect

We all know that this is the issue. And if we are honest, we know that this is the problem for each of us. We trust and we don't friggen verify. This vuln is the proof. Yes, we have a serious issue. Virtue signal became more important than actual work. We grew fat. We are lazy mfs. I am. You are. Everyone is.

Realize it now. And ffs get yourself on a diet and be lean again.
