Dead Simple

“3, 2, 1. Let’s jam!”

Anime fans know that opening from Cowboy Bebop.

They also know the show’s first Astral Gate was built in 2021, only to blow up a year later.

Given how this year is going, I put equal odds as the cause being either a supply chain vuln or ransomware. And, hey, that code could’ve used a security review for backdoors, too.

I’m not sure if this is the first time I used the phrase, “dead simple”, but it’s one that I’ve used many times since.
