The idea is to squeeze as much revenue from the largest 600 clients while they desperately attempt to move to a different virtualization platform: https://www.theregister.com/2022/05/30/broadcom_strategy_vmware_customer_impact/
There are answers, they just take a level of experience to reach that most people aren’t cut out for. You gotta be several principal+ IC roles or Dir+ mgr roles in before the patterns congeal into a plan.
Challenge is operating at those levels for extended periods requires a super fucking insane level of competency and dedication. Most people hit that spot and coast till retirement cause you’re at $500k+ at FAANG. Few keep looking for new opportunities unless forced to or they’re those corporate robot sharks with the dead eyes.
One of my favorite CS memories was on LAN at quakecon.
1v10. The enemy team just killed 9 of us. I’m the last person up. Demolished them. A couple close moments, but caught almost everyone of them in 1v1s.
After I kill 10 people in a single fucking round, on LAN mind you, some prick on their team types “lucky” in all chat.
I was fucking furious.
So sure enough the very next round my team gets shit on. 1v10 again. I, again, wipe the fucking floor with them. 10 down.
I just stood up and screamed.
Double NIC on the proxy. One in each VLAN.
