The CrowdStrike developer who wrote the defective update knocking out computer systems around the globe proves that one person really can make a difference.

@MissingThePt It had to be several people. Don’t forget the QA folk who didn’t catch the issue.

@m0xee @MissingThePt I am QA!

TBH I also have no idea how that got through. That Clown'sTrike case ticks all the possible boxes — I mean it got deployed to customers on Friday! On Friday for Christ's sake, ha-ha-ha!🤣
This makes me wonder if they have any set procedures at all🤔
But it's not like they are special in this regard, sometimes you work for a company with a well-established brand and everyone expects you never experience stereotypically bad things in your work, but you know — oh, you know!
