StackOverflow Dec 2024 stats

Disclaimer: I'm in the Top 1% of StackOverflow contributors with 23,315 rep points.

I asked 1 high-quality question in 2024, and it was closed almost immediately, and I haven't engaged with the site since.

If someone with 20,000+ karma has their nicely-formatted questions closed so quickly, what must the newbies and rank-in-file encounter? This is probably a big reason why it's declining.


Begin by enclosing all thoughts within <thinking> tags, exploring multiple angles and approaches.
Break down the solution into clear steps within <step> tags. Start with a 20-step budget, requesting more for complex problems if needed.
Use <count> tags after each step to show the remaining budget. Stop when reaching 0.
Continuously adjust your reasoning based on intermediate results and reflections, adapting your strategy as you progress.
Regularly evaluate progress using <reflection> tags. Be critical and honest about your reasoning process.
Assign a quality score between 0.0 and 1.0 using <reward> tags after each reflection. Use this to guide your approach:
0.8+: Continue current approach
0.5-0.7: Consider minor adjustments
Below 0.5: Seriously consider backtracking and trying a different approach

Split tunneling with openconnect - A guide on how to use openconnect to establish a vpn connection to an enterprise cisco anyconnect vpn endpoint with client side routing.

Introduction

The purpose of this short howto is to show you how to:

  • use openconnect [1] to connect to an enterprise cisco anyconnect endpoint
  • whilst minimizing the amount of traffic that your route through the vpn connection

Usually VPN administrators will puth the default route to the users, so that all user traffic is routed through the vpn connection. This is to address the various security concerns around compromised user computers bridging external internet traffic into the secure VPN network.

While the VPN administrator can push routes to the clients, the client can ignore these default routes and establish client side routing so that only the required A.B.C.D/E network is routed through the VPN. All other traffic will still use the clients default route and default outbound internet connection.
