CrowdStrike: It's Friday, let's throw it over the wall to production. See you all on Monday!

Good choice, tho. Is the image AI?
It's a real photograph from this morning.
Not sure, I didn't make it. Just part of my collection.
Fair enough!
We did it guys! We moved fast AND broke things!
When your push to prod on Friday causes a small but measurable drop in global GDP.
Actually, it may have helped slow climate change a little
The earth is healing ๐
For part of today
With all the aircraft on the ground, it was probably a noticeable change. Unfortunately, those people are still going to end up flying at some point, so the reduction in CO2 output on Friday will just be made up for over the next few days.
Definitely not small, our website is down so we can't do any business and we're a huge company. Multiply that by all the companies that are down, lost time on projects, time to get caught up once it's fixed, it'll be a huge number in the end.
GDP is typically stated by the year. One or two days lost, even if it was 100% of the GDP for those days, would still be less than 1% of GDP for the year.
I know people who work at major corporations who said they were down for a bit, it's pretty huge.
Does your web server run windows? Or is it dependent on some systems that run Windows? I would hope nobody's actually running a web server on Windows these days.
I have a absolutely no idea. Not my area of expertise.
They did it on Thursday. All of SFO was BSODed for me when I got off a plane at SFO Thursday night.
Was it actually pushed on Friday, or was it a Thursday night (US central / pacific time) push? The fact that this comment is from 9 hours ago suggests that the problem existed by the time work started on Friday, so I wouldn't count it as a Friday push. (Still, too many pushes happen at a time that's still technically Thursday on the US west coast, but is already mid-day Friday in Asia).
I'm in Australia so def Friday. Fu crowdstrike.
Seems like you should be more mad at the International Date Line.
