An exploration of systemic fragility in modern software infrastructure and organizational design.

Discussion points:

• Why modern enterprise systems crumble under mundane misconfigurations rather than sophisticated cyberattacks.
• The cult of 99.999% uptime and how it paradoxically breeds catastrophic fragility.
• Antifragility: Designing systems that benefit from periodic small stressors.
• When accepting failure gracefully constitutes superior engineering over brittle defense.
