Too much security? Locked myself out with Pull Requests
I fell into the trap. I blindly followed all the "best practices" and now I can't deploy. Watch me explain how this happened in an Infrastructure as Code use case and why I use God Mode to bypass the very controls I put in place. No one's perfect, not me either.
Important - this video describes a very specific high trust scenario and should not be considered a best practice. It's here to teach you how to think for yourself.
