I wish Crowdstrike's employees wouldn't take kindly to Crowdstrike bringing down hospitals and killing innocents.

I'm sure they don't. But it's clear this was not intentional. It was a tragic mistake that's all.

They didn't even bother to test this update. They don't have canary deployments. It's clear that their QA and development culture is complete garbage. That is not "just a mistake".

Morality and ethics fly out the window the minute cash enters the equation. It's very easy to appear to altruism and write heroic posts on X, it's another to apply them in practice.
