    As a Windows engineer, the number of times I’ve seen other “engineers” open a case with Microsoft is insane. It seems to be a lot of their first reactions. No logs, no trying anything, just “this broke, why no work”. I think it’s that the Linux guys are mostly self taught, and the windows guys aren’t.

      It’s that kind of thinking that makes shit like the crowd strike problem possible.
