All our servers and company laptops went down at pretty much the same time. Laptops have been bootlooping to blue screen of death. It’s all very exciting, personally, as someone not responsible for fixing it.
Apparently caused by a bad CrowdStrike update.
Edit: now being told we (who almost all generally work from home) need to come into the office Monday as they can only apply the fix in-person. We’ll see if that changes over the weekend…
Because if you roll out something to production on a friday whose there to fix it on the Saturday and Sunday if it breaks? Friday is the WORST day of the week to roll anything out. you roll out on Tuesday or Wednesday that way if something breaks you got people around to jump in and fix it.
And hence the term read-only Friday.
