Turns out it's even funnier, the other co-founder and former CTO of CrowdStrike is this guy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dmitri_Alperovitch
And he was a vice-president of research at McAfee at the same time that DAT 5958 shit happened.
It's insane how the same management managed to fuck up twice in exactly the same way 🤣

Так вроде во время дождя пить — самое оно! Нет? 🤔
@alter_kaker
Врут ведь! Как обычно.
За водкой всё так же надо ходить в магазин самостоятельно и покупать на свои 😢

It isn't? I only started watching the first episode and it's the exact impression it gave me. It's not all in this vein? I wonder if I should keep watching it then? 🤔

Beware, The Sandman might send debt^Weyeball collectors 😱

And then again after having to update that library for a security fix, but some fucker of course had to change some interfaces to — in order to offer you even more features you'd never use 😩
@binkle @PunishedD @RustyCrab
In a lot of cases it's not even about not being able to implement something, but about popular libraries attempting to do everything you might ever need and the kitchen sink, but you don't need all that, but only need something simple, which is a tiny sunset of it and you end up wasting lots of time just trying to get through all the levels of abstractions they have implemented.

No, I'm writing my own asynchronous I/O library! And no, it's not going to become an absolutely broken cluster fuck like all those already existing ones, this time I'm going to make it right, I swear! 😏
@Hyolobrika
"Is this something from pre-hallucinating computer era?"— some might ask. They don't make them anymore — people started believing their existence itself is a myth 🤪

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!

It's the druids — they always do this 🧙
@ozzelot
You guys in infosec have QA? 😏

I think that D: partition was created manually, and the recovery one Windows creates itself upon installation by chipping off the free space at the end of its main partition. In fact, if your Windows installation has lives long enough, you might even end up with several 😂
I kid you not, some update made the recovery system no longer fit into the old partition, and Windows was chipping away some free space again to create a new one.

Just in case: DMs/PMs simply don't exist on this instance as concept — don't use them, use the other instance if you absolutely have to, or send an email to any address at m0xEE.Net or .Com or .Org, but I prefer keep most communication public.
