#12No big deal. Crowdstrike is a poor company. Not much value to leverage. New company takes over and inserts their superior product. And bring value to their company.

#18If I'm ever part of a company that causes an outage like this I will resign immediately and offer to help as a consultant for an immediate 5-figure cash retainer. I can't imagine how many devs at CS likely went into full overdrive and aren't getting paid for it.

#20Maybe these can be given to the lawyers who (hopefully) sue them into the ground.
