In today’s episode of the Better Offline podcast, Ed Zitron specifically pointed to Y2K as an example of tech and government and business getting it right by investing to avert a disaster. The topic was Friday’s massive outage caused by CrowdStrike. Once again, I’m telling you that it was a massive effort that saved us from bad things happening rather than an overhyped nothing.

When you do things right people won't be sure you've done anything at all. In fact they'll actively deny it.
