  “Now verify the repo isn’t compromised by trusting github and 900 npm dependencies” lmao

  I understood everything, and I hate it.

    …"We don’t just dump production applications in $HOME like crazy people”

    Hey, I don’t dump them in home, I test them in home and never move them.

    It’s been a long 2026 and I appreciate that this video actually made me laugh out loud.

    I understood nothing and enjoyed the comedy, good stuff

      Do you want a scene-by-scene explanation of every command shown?

  Broken is the de facto standard

  And after having done that, you spend the next day automating these steps with cloud-init and Ansible

  I feel attacked

    That’s because you didn’t disable password for ssh login, nor wireguard vpn tunneling (no idea why openclaw was shilling tailscale), and you don’t have robust fail2ban rules.

  I mean, it’s mostly reasonable.

  Isn’t it?

    Well you could have skipped a bunch of it if you make ssh only available via tailscale like he does

    No. You see, it’s much easier doing the same thing in some cloud like aws and paying a small fortune for a slower server than on a vps.

      I hate to tell you but a VPS is just a VM in the cloud. Unless you’re paying for bare metal, at which point you are paying an arm and a leg.

  Love the Emergency by Paramore with the lyrics taken out in the background. I feel seen now.
