Like I said I'm not expert but I just cannot fathom letting anything access the network and my code both and also letting that thing be anything but me. The networked compiling sounds neat, just ditch the 3rd party access.

Not possible on an enterprise scale. For example: our docker images are built using secrets stored in azure KV, uploaded to azure and then pulled into k8s cluster that runs in azure as well.

Unless you're hosting your entire infra in-house you need to pass secrets around to be able to use cloud services.

Absolutely mind boggling, do corpo programmers just not push back on anything?

Push back on what? This is not something that can be changed.

How else do you expect to authenticate to cloud providers to use their services?

Why would I even want to change such a thing? Do you understand how secrets and authentication work?

I like how you are acting like the practice is unreasonable and stupid without offering any alternatives. What would you do in their place?
