Hey former colleague - just had to say hello on a comment where you might see.
I started reading this article and everything started feeling so familiar... as soon as you told me Munch was the resident shaman, everything clicked.
My favorite factoid for others was that when I was there, we used split-horizon DNS to squat on an in-use domain name for tons of internal services, including Github. I kept wondering what would happen if the owner realized & set up his own services to catch people who weren't on the VPN.
How do you pronounce that?
Was it like the word munch in “munching on some snacks”?
Or like the name of the painter Edward Munch? https://www.nrk.no/kultur/nrk-endrer-munch-uttale-1.539667 (note: this link is in Norwegian)
