Crowdstrike event caused a disaster at my company.
No, we didn't had a single crash, but something much worse has happened. My tech lead who lives in early 90's got his confirmation that we shall run with 0 internet, everything on premise, no source control, no external libraries only the absolute must that doesn't need ever any update. Finally we started to show him how powerful an azure pipeline would be, but after this, there's no hope.

    Why would you need internet for source control? Where were you storing your source? All of our source control is on servers on site. All of our servers are backed up periodically. We could operate without internet if we needed to.

    That has its place, and in those cases there is nothing at all wrong with it.

    But be warned, it masks code rot. If you ever need to update (or interface with) third-party code, that update will be most painful.

    Why even use networks at all? My awesome service runs completely locally on https://localhost/best-tool-ever

    Free domain name included if you update everyones hosts files too.

    I don't have a lot of users for some reason, probably due to the CrowdStrike crash

    @Hazarth I had problems loading your page, but other than that it looks great!
