P.I.D. Radio 7/20/24: Are They Really That Incompetent?

  

TWO MAJOR EVENTS shook the world over the last seven days: The attempt on Donald Trump’s life and the biggest IT outage in history. The biggest question in our minds for both events is this: Is it plausible these events occurred through sheer incompetence?

There were so many obvious failures by the Secret Service and local law enforcement at Trump’s rally in Pennsylvania last Saturday that it’s led some to question how such a cascading series of errors is even possible.

Likewise, a botched update rolled out to CrowdStrike’s anti-virus software caused Microsoft Windows to crash in computers all over the world. That led to grounded airliners and airport closures, banks and businesses unable to process credit and debit card transactions, and hospitals forced to reschedule non-emergency procedures. How is it possible that code so badly written was pushed out to millions of customers without being tested by CrowdStrike?

Also: Israel’s Knesset passes resolution declaring that there will be no independent Palestinian state—“not now, not ever,” according to a Likud Party MK. And the electricity demands of Bitcoin farms and AI data centers are bringing a sharp dose of reality to Net Zero dreams.


NOTE: Due to security concerns, our Solidarity Mission to Israel scheduled for November 6–13, 2024 has been canceled.

NOTE: The dates of our next tour of Israel has been changed from March 25–April 3, 2025 to the fall of 2025. Firm dates will be announced shortly.

The tour features our Iron and Myth panelists Doug Van Dorn and Dr. Judd Burton, along with author/adventurer Timothy Alberino! For more information, log on to GilbertHouse.org/travel.
