Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

In the vein of collapsing infrastructure, my condolences to anyone dealing with aftermath of Crowdstrike's big ol fucky wucky. If I were a bad person looking for entertainment, I would seed a conspiracy theory about how today's cockup is really the result of Rationalist sleeper agents launching a guerilla struggle to strangle the basilisk in its crib.
Question for the experts: do you all suppose this will drive a new cycle of hype around thin clients and network booting?
I don't think this alone would push towards that (any more than the last few years of "everything is a webapp!!!!!!" have done), but I would love to see people try to hypewave this purely so we get rid of so much fucking fat js garbage
