Are we relieved to know that Microsoft's massive outage isn't due to hacking, but rather incompetence?

If Microsoft knew what caused the outage they may have fixed it.
Both hacking and incompetence remain active possibilities with precedent.
@dangillmor 60 000 people fired + vibe coding. Predictable I will say. When the c level will understand that experience and competency beat stochastic parots trained on entry level code? Probably never.
What's the chance that all the vibe coding accidentally deleted something very important?
@dangillmor Being hacked is also a sign of incompetence. They are so incompetent that it doesn't even need any sort of malicious behavior to crack them down.
@dangillmor AI lets us fire everybody that gets paid a lot for knowing things.
@dangillmor Did someone hand control over to #AI?! 😱
@dangillmor Well, better than knowing that North Korea now owns all our base. Maybe?
Relieve? No.
Schadenfreude? Yes.
I raise my morning tea to the 60.000 people laid off by Microsoft.
@dangillmor yes their incompetence is known for decades: Windows ME, Vista, 8… Crowdstrike bug… the weather app using 1.4Gb of RAM on Win 11… Microslop AI. I was very suspicious of Windows XP or 7, too perfect to embody the brand’s image.
@dangillmor Hanlon's Razor is seldom wrong

As I wrote here in a german rant post, the availability feeling with bullshit tool lotus notes was much better.
M$, wtf is this sh*t?
