I think a lot about software that is fundamentally flawed but gets propelled up in value due to great sales and marketing. It makes me question the industry.

It's interesting that this is being referred to as a black swan event in the markets. If you look at the SolarWinds fiasco from a few years ago, there are some differences, but it boils down to problems with shitty software having too many privileges being deployed all over the place. It's a weak mono culture and eventually a plague will cause devastation. I think a screw up for these sorts of software models shouldn't really be thought of as a black swan event, but instead an inevitability.
