    Thank you, I am fucking sick of people passing this comic around in relation to the Crowdstrike failure. Crowdstrike is a $90bn corporation, they’re not some little guy doing a thankless task. They had all the resources and expertise required to avoid this happening, they just didn’t give a shit. They want to move fast and break things, and that’s exactly what they did.

      They’re so far from being the little guy, their CEO has extensive experience DOING LITERALLY THIS SAME THING 14 YEARS AGO

      Off topic but that “move fast and break things” line from Zuck irks me quite a bit. Probably because it’s such a bratty corporate billionaire thing to say

    Yep, its not the cave gremlin that codes clean and efficiently, using 1/10th of the amount of code lines, that fucks it up. Its the bloated commercial software vendors that break their software every week.

    If the Falcon driver was open source, someone might have actually caught the bug ahead of time.
