Comment on Cloudflare blames massive internet outage on 'latent bug'
NotMyOldRedditName@lemmy.world 19 hours agoI don’t think it was a bug making the configuration change, I think there was a bug as a result of that change.
That specific combination of changes may not have been tested, or applied in production for months, and it just happened to happen today, hence the latent part.

Yeah, I just read the postmortem. My response was more about the confusion that any configuration change is inherently non-routine.
