Really, an SEC filing is their only response to this? I guess it goes to show how much SolarWinds actually cares about it’s engineering.
Every other party involved has released some kind of security postmortem. Get your act together, and address your customers directly.
What part of my comment is difficult to believe?

That mostly makes sense. Would you recommend going towards this route for other developers?

This is exactly what I’m talking about. The original spirit/purpose of Bitcoin has been completely taken over by financial engineering and speculation. And it’s such a shame.
People over-leveraging themselves to buy Bitcoin, which anyone with real experience has already moved on from for better designed crypto by the way, is a clear sign that right now we are at peak hype in this space.
This is me speaking as someone who read the white paper on Bitcoin in 2010, and then mined on my GPU for all of 2011-2012 to help build out the network. I have since moved on, as have other practitioners.
The only people that remain on Bitcoin are retail speculators, governments with seized assets, and financial institutions. It’s not a healthy makeup, and extraordinarily toxic to the greater crypto community as a whole in my honest opinion.
This is where the bubble pops folks. You watched it here live.
The CDC site provides information in other languages as well if you’d like to share with family/friends in your community!
Is your avoidance of frameworks/libraries based on principle or performance?
We often look nostalgically back to the past, but it’s a fair argument that for a lot of people things really weren’t all that great.
As a woman, as well as being in STEM, I see how tenuous my position still is. On my team I’m still the only female in an engineering role. I can’t imagine what life would have been like if I had been born 100 years ago.
I want to start contributing to open source projects like these, but the process seems somewhat intimidating.
Are there any good guides or maybe an introductory tutorial somewhere on how to get involved?
