who is hiring these fucking idiots? they need to be blacklisted
- hbn 2y agoReminds me of Phil Harrison who always seems to find himself in an of executive position, botching launches of new video game platforms - PlayStation 3, Xbox One, Google Stadia
- Zanneth 2y agoCrowdstrike is run by humans just like you and me. One mistake doesn’t mean they are completely incompetent.
- matrix87 2y agoThe CTO with a shitty track record, not the line employees. He deserves zero reprieve
- Salgat 2y agoMistakes are perfectly fine, that's why multiple layers of testing exist
- jjav 2y ago> Mistakes are perfectly fine, that's why multiple layers of testing exist Indeed. Or in the case of crowdstrike, should exist. Which clearly doesn't for them.

- 10rm 2y agoExcept this isn’t one mistake. Writing buggy code is a mistake. Not catching it in testing, QA, dogfooding or incremental rollouts is a complete institutional failure
- jjav 2y ago> One mistake doesn’t mean they are completely incompetent. They are completely incompetent because for something as critical as crowdstrike code, you must build so many layers of validation that one, two or three mistakes don't matter because they will be caught before the code ends up in a customer system. Looks like they have so little validation that one mistake (which is by itself totally normal) can end up bricking large parts of the economy without ever being caught. Which is neither normal nor competent.
