I said yes quite vocally when I read this. I’m not even American, but that’s how desperate I am for some good news.

Fuck’s sake, country and world; get your shit together.

Google seems to suggest they’re some sort of fintech company out of South Africa? Either way if that’s their product then I’d run a mile in the other direction, and then another just be sure.

Wait, I didn’t even realise Williams F1 was involved…

When you say ran everything, what kinda stuff?

Everyone is assuming it’s some intern pushing a release out accidentally or a lack of QA but Microsoft also pushed out July security updates that have been causing bsods on the 9th(?). These aren’t optional either.

What’s the likelihood that the CS file was tested on devices that hadn’t got the latest windows security update and it was an unholy union of both those things that’s caused this meltdown. The timelines do potentially line up when you consider your average agile delivery cadence.

Also, enterprise infrastructure running on a Mac? It’s something I’ve never heard of in over a decade and a half of working in tech. And now I’m curious. Is it a thing?

Tough but necessary. Irrefutably necessary.

Technology has evolved at faster than we’ve been able to secure it and now we’re paying the price with enterprise and state level breaches, and global annual internet fraud at an all time high.

And not just software but physical goods too. We’ve produced without any consideration for end of product life cycle management and now we’re in a plastic crisis.

Completely different spheres of society but so similar in so many ways.
