      Won’t take that long, security researchers are already decompiling the update to see if it was malicious or incompetence.

        You won’t find the incompetence in the software no matter what.

        If you fail to assume that the software contains issues – if you fail to understand that your software is made by humans and humans make mistakes, not because they’re bad but because they’re human – and if you fail to implement mechanisms to feel gracefully with inevitable failures, THAT is the incompetence.

        Failures are systemic.

      Never attribute to maliciousness that which can be explained by incompetence.

      That said, I’m sure the Crowdstrike CEO is currently on a phone call with three of their pet Congresscritters asking if they can get a $100M grant to harden their systems against Russia/China/NKorea/Antifa interference right now.

    Can someone in non marketing terms explain what the fuck CrowdStrike Falcon Sensor is? I literally never heard of this company or product before.
