All the cloud services I've used had virtual network firewalls for internal traffic. Security Groups for AWS, Cloud Firewall for GCP, etc. That's typically how lateral traffic gets managed. Defense in depth is good, but as I said I haven't used host firewalls in forever, and we get audited for security certificates every year, and no auditor has asked about them that I recall.

    These firewall tools are interesting, but I honestly haven't needed them in years. The premise is a little out of date. Who puts cloud servers on the open internet these days? Everything I see uses a public load balancer and a WAF service.

    What's the advantage of pretending McConnell isn't dead or incapacitated? The Kentucky legislature already took the power to appoint vacancies from the Governor when a Democrat won. Who wants to delay or avoid a special election? I don't get it.

    Came across an interview with Cass Sunstein by Tyler Cowen, which covered many things, but where this idea of a right to be free of manipulation came up. I found this article Sunstein wrote about the topic a few months ago. Apparently part of a promotion tour for his book https://www.cambridge.org/core/books/abs/manipulation/right-not-to-be-manipulated/FBB35C24137F78950566867F1D348AB0

     

    Why do so many philosophers value anarchy but refuse to call themselves anarchists? Why don’t philosophers draw on the classical anarchist tradition? How can we think de facto anarchism as distinct from dawning anarchism? What is at stake in doing so? Does philosophy need anarchism? To answer these questions, in Stop Thief! Anarchism and Philosophy (Polity Books, 2023), Catherine Malabou reads submerged counter-revolutionary themes in the texts of several key philosophical thinkers. By doing so, Malabou helps us understand the ways in which philosophy has left anarchy unthought, while also stealing from it, and disavowing it. What emerges in her analysis is the importance of the non-governable, not just as a problem for philosophy, but as what opens towards other ways of sharing, acting, and thinking.

    I enjoyed the interview. May try to make time for the book too.

    The New Books Network is a consortium of author-interview podcast channels dedicated to public education. Covering 100+ subjects, disciplines, and genres, we publish 70 to 100 episodes every week.

    I just found this today, and the first couple episodes in intellectual history have me excited. Can't properly vouch for the quality broadly, but I like the idea, and am going to be digging in over the next few days. Maybe check it out.
