Question becomes... How much in treasuries do they have to dump? And it does sound like a "You only have so many bullets in that magazine there chief..." scenario.

Shockingly close sir! $2172 This was to fix the sound (turned out to be a differential issue). Plus my car's "100k Spa Day". Rear Differential service and work Transmission regular maintenance (fluid swap, etc,) New Plugs, tune up misc other recommended 100k maintenance Replace front end...

So from the "There's no way they're STILL pissed about that" file... Last night was the first night Luka played against the Mavs in Dallas. They made a big deal out of it, handed out T-shirts with something on them in Slovenian (couldn't use Luka's name or number because he's on another team...

OK, So I wrapped up the "reseal the travertine shower" project. Question I have now is how long to let the new sealer cure before use. Bottle says 24-72 hours for a complete cure, but "Can be used in 8 hours". I could see 8 hours for something which would have minimal water contact like a...

I think if we have solid to good inflation numbers tomorrow and Trump makes real headway in getting China to bend the knee this will have legs.

Also, IIRC it can't index/crawl areas that you have to have special permission to view (i.e. Politics and the gun club for instance)

I wonder if this will build momentum, and if what we get tomorrow ill boost or kill it.. Tomorrow?...

I just checked mine... Thanks for your concern. But I can assure you it's working just fine.

I have friends who work at Crowdstrike.... I'm starting to worry and think I might need to do some welfare checks on them. They can't be doing well right now.

Another option to take exists. I'm not sure if it exists in Crowdstrike as it's been a hot minute since I was working through their UI and options but... In most modern EDR/NGAV tools I have worked with there are options for "Auto-update, but delay X days before applying it". Which then...

In the "this was foretold in prophecy" file...

As I mentioned, their sales are already being impacted in all probability since they will have had a lot of "close of FQ" deals supposedly signing and completing this week. Worst possible time for something like this to happen. And looking at where support levels for their stock are...

As mentioned, the TLDR of it all is : If you pay extra each month make sure it's going towards principal. Some banks will call it "pre-paying" the next months interest, some will consider it an extra payment into the escrow account, etc. Most banks apply it to principal by default, but make sure.

I would say "survived the weekend". There are still a MASSIVE number of systems still down across the globe because of this. It will probably be late this week before we can say the global IT community has "recovered". And seems the analysts have noticed... This morning's CRWD news...

Would this be "closest to the target" or Price is Right where it's closest without going over?

I'd say if you know you're going to be able to easily pay it off at either term look for the term with the lowest interest rate. If that's the 30, you go that way and just overpay each month applying it to principal. And yeah, for the most part the posted rates they show on sites are always...

Conservatives estimates are currently pointing at $200-$239 for opening weekend. I think the bigger question will be if it hits a billion total.

Going Friday around lunchtime with the wife. She has a Cinemark app thing which accumulated a lot of tickets, so we're getting 5 seats. One on either side of us so we don't have to deal with others, and one between us for snacks. Admittedly this is a Friday and during the day, but so far it...

The default "best practice" that all companies in this space tend to default to is "allow automatic updates so you always have the latest protections". What most large organizations then change that to is a "Dev/Test/Prod" approach. New content updates for EDR/AV start in "Test", you deploy to...

There are multiple competitors in their space, and more than a few that are honestly better than them. They had an early starter advantage and have been masterful with their marketing over that time. Which has blessed them over time with a certain level of market share dominance on top of their...

I didn't even go really into how it balances in the end... Sales, in many cases, is a life of feast and famine. In my area of sales and with the customers I have it's often 2-3 quarters of "survive" and then one quarter of "blow it out and all hail accelerators!" Companies either have to...

So who's gonna tell this person that most dogs learn from and mimic their owners to learn behavior and socialization?

It actually ends up balancing out..... You pull something forward to make Q2 look better, that means Q3 just took a hit... So then you need to pull Q4 stuff to fill Q3 for things you pulled into Q2.. it's kinda silly, but it's the way of things. OTOH, I have been in situations where my company...

This is definitely affecting some areas, but I would say consulting/planning and such will be the most resistant so long as people want/need human input. In my world, you're dead on right. This movement was starting around 2017-2018. It used to be that we would sell to the security teams at...

My theory... (full disclosure, I work in sales in cybersecurity, but not for Crowdstrike). They run one month offset, meaning that July is the end of their Fiscal Q2. It is very common practice in cybersecurity companies to pile a lot of deals in the last week of the quarter (and even moreso...

I will have to admit that to run the fix in an environment with Bitlocker you essentially have to have your IT department read you off a 64 character string and you have to enter it to boot into safe mode is some serious Chef's Kiss level of hurt locker pain.

Forward your IT department the mashable link and tell them to nut up...

Guess Crowdstrike is a lad of tiny hands folks.... with all that entails.

Apparently there was a Crowdstrike update pushed out this morning which is causing a LOT of windows systems to blue screen. For those who do not know, Crowdstrike is an EDR tool (Endpoint Detection and Response) tool. I.e. a protection against hacks. Here's a fast link with a fix ...

And just imagine the level of non-veiled ham fisted-ness we'll get in next season if Trump wins in November....

The point is pretty simple. Every manager up and down the chain needs to prove THEY are the magical manager who moves the needle for the company, at least in the eyes of whoever they report to. So each one wants to make things either happen faster, cost less, or both. The number of...

Yeah, I've been in IT my whole career (since 18), in Cybersecurity for the last quarter century (since 99), and in sales since 2012. The sales path for me was through the reseller space for the first 8 years or so, now I'm in the big corporate vendor world. This has been one of those...

Is this that feeling where you chose your kitchen tile color option knowing it wouldn't show the shedding as badly? ;)

I know it's summertime... I know we all want to cut loose and say to hell with it... But we all need to remember. This isn't Nam, there are RULES HERE.
