    They still haven’t vibe coded a patch yet? Perhaps that offer to buyout 60,000 workers and push AI wasn’t the best choice.

        Prompting it wrong really is a rookie mistake, which is odd because I heard anybody can use it

    I hope this wakes up the corporate world to the fact that us tech giants services should not be exempt from basic business continuity planning principles.

      At a minimum the missed SLA fees should be automatic. The responsibility to file a claim shouldn’t be on the company/admin.

        The contracts these companies have to sign probably amount to “oh well sucks to be you” in terms of restitution.

          That’s not the case. There’s a good post about it here but they contractually owe credits to enterprise license holders.

    Nice how they have changed their stance from “definitely not a cyber attack” to “wouldn’t it be convenient to blame this on a cyber attack, we’ll leave that door open.”

    It’s nice being outside the industry for a bit, I can just sit back and laugh instead of having to be involved.

    Wish my company wasn’t fixed already when I started work this morning…lol. Even if it mostly only affected put email, it’s one fewer communication points for me to have to monitor and no one could schedule last minute meetings as a bonus. Lol
