That's not the title? Likely related to Windows Bluescreen and Boot Loops (update: caused by a Crowdstrike update) (184 points, 1 hour ago) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41002195

I think, as it is a live BBC page, the title is changing over time? It is now "Planes grounded as mass worldwide IT outage spreads, with airlines, media and banks hit"

I’m really confused about the line of questioning here. Do you think it’s more likely that the submitter has purposely put a random number at the start, or that they’re telling the truth and there’s something that you’re not seeing?
