Fukk centralized monopolies

Lol
Crowdstrike is in no way a monopoly
It’s a cybersecurity company in an ocean full of other cybersecurity companies.

The CrowdStrike CEO said.... We're deeply sorry and it's not a Cyber Attack.


But let forget to send one email, no actually let hop on a zoom late where my opinion is NOT warranted

Supply chain hacks going into overdrive after this.

weren't y'all laughing a couple weeks back that Japan still uses physical media, especially 3.5" floppy disks

I always thought they had the right idea, personally. I imagine a lot of companies are gonna be moving to on prem at a higher rate after this.

You have near misses like this with security software all the time. But it usually only causes occasional slowness or isolated crashes.

The way companies have cut all QA positions. And reduced overall IT headcount to the bone. It was only a matter of time before something big like this happened.

I guess laying off hundreds of thousands of tech people doesn't save money after all.

Our company got rid of all QA and said developers should do both jobs.

1 yr later . Our top IT priority is Test Automation lol.
