What a wonderful episode. Very insightful folks. I couldn’t prevent myself thinking that:

1. On government regulation: It is funny that Microsoft blames the EU and its anti-monopoly rules, as allegedly it forced them to open unrestricted kernel access to third parties (opposite to Apple for example).

2. On prevention: This type of issues were common on cloud early days and a whole industry grew around progressive delivery (feature flags, canaries, etc ). Crowdstrike could have done way way better. I believe they mentioned they would adopt these practices from now on.

3. On thin clients: Thin clients already exist everywhere. Not Citrix-like but the world runs on web browsers. And for many, a web browser is all that they need. Even for engineers we are seeing more and more that tasks that used to depend on a thick app, e.g. coding, that can be done now without exiting the browser.

Needed to take those thoughts off me. Love your show!

I think you guys missed the most important question…
What show was Robert Ross moshing at?? :D
