Amongst the most dangerous type of stupid that has ever existed is #ElonMusk's application of the #FailFast tech startup principle to nuclear weapons. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2025/02/17/trump-musk-nuclear-weapons-workers-nnsa/78968238007/
"Hey, #DeptofDefense, if you drop your investigation(s) into why I am so willfully-compromised, I can send a Crew Dragon spacecraft up to the ISS, um, tomorrow! I never liked #NASA's precautions anyway. #FailFast, as they, err, #Boeing says!" - #LeonSkum. https://www.space.com/space-exploration/human-spaceflight/boeing-starliner-astronauts-will-return-to-earth-in-march-2025-after-new-nasa-spacex-delay
#Zeitumstellung funktioniert super, besonders mit Kindern
Schafft das mal wieder ab langsam, bitte. #FailFast
The “fast” part of #FailFast matters. A 6 month failure is not fast. “Fast” means at least fast enough that the pain of failure is acceptable.
Since we recently we recently had 2+ hours of downtime, I will allow it. /s
TBH, I would do the downtime because if there is a problem, you will be able to fallback quickly.
You want to failfast.
If you try the migration path, there could be an undetected ptoblem ocuuring that is not discovered quickly, and the remediation could end up being a bigger mess than 2 hours of downtime.
I am old skool, this is how I would do it.

“The subtlety of it is pretty insidious. Like some kind of distributed long con, played out over and over, in the midst of so many millions of other simultaneous ones.”

Fully agree with this - small - #failfast experiments are key in my experience.
D'oh, wrong GitHub link. Please share this tweet instead. #FailFast lol
